sorry for your loss, but there are many more reasons that could have killed your geckos, than a virus.
could have been parasites, worms, ...
did you quarantine the gecko from lllreptiles after you noticed that he was acting strange? (new animals should be at least quarantined 6 weeks)
how long did you have your geckos? specially the one from lllreptiles?
sorry really dont mean to offend you, but even here in austria (europe), there are vets who deal with reptiles, and here reptiles arent nearly as often kept as pets like in the us. isnt there even any zoo close to you? they often have vets who know how to deal with reptiles.
anyway how long did it take till all your geckos died? have they all been in the same enclosure, room etc?
you really should send one or two of the geckos to an institute to research what killed them, or new geckos could share the same fortune.

and once more, i really dont mean to offend you, i can imagine how terrible it is for you, but you have to be certain that it wasnt your fault.

ps: sorry for my bad english
