Skip trace + DNC Scrubbing

Does anyone know of any skip tracing service that also offers to scrub the FCC DNC list? Looking to get both things done in one swoop.

Hello BP. We recently found the DNC project (https://www.thedncproject.org) that will DNC scrub up to 5k numbers for $35, so pretty cheap. Initially we registered with the FTC to get the DNC lists for the area codes we work in, but found that the CSV files were huge (over 1 million rows for just one of the area codes), far exceeding what you can do in Excel. So the next step was to find a scrubber that we can just upload our skip traced numbers to and get results back. With the Y/N results, we simply created a new tab in our prospect lists in excel and used a VLOOKUP formula to insert the Y/N in a new column next to each number. I'd prefer a option for skip trace with a DNC scrubbing already completed, but the extra 10 minutes  of file prepping is not too bad.
