Exclamation Green Flashing Key Issue

My wife and I were out on Sunday and came out of a store to head home and our 2006 Acura TL would not start. I noticed a green flashing key on the instrument panel. I tried our other set of keys and the same thing happened. We looked online and have found it is an issue with the transponder key not communicating with the immobilization feature on the vehicle. I have seen posts that have referred people to the dealer to fix and I have seen posts that mention using a locksmith to reset the transponder key to the immobilizer unit. Can anyone provide some guidance on this issue? If I go to Acura I am going to have to pay for the tow, pay to have the diagnostic done and pay for parts and labor potentially. If I use a locksmith and that works, they will come to me and the fee will be less than having a diagnostic done. I just don't want to go to a locksmith and have it work for a few days and then have to go to the dealer anyway...Help
