Drug use is a great concern to parents, as it should be.  But, agency of children, and the natural and negative reaction of children to coercion limits what a parent should do.  Considering residential treatment?

Dr. Latham’s recommendation on this issue was to keep the child at home, as long as the child is functioning.  But, you need to make sure that you create a positive, non-coercive home environment where your family values are communicated clearly and modeled.  Dr. Latham’s personal experience was that 95% of wayward came back to the family value system when parents did this.
