pull the hub out, take it to a shop and get one (ball joint) pressed in and out.

They are a very very tight fit I agree take it in and have them pressed out and in. just make sure they don't tear the boot.

a shop shouldn't charge you much to press it out/in if you take it to them. it's your best bet unless you have press at your house.
