I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but a better response might be, "You're wasting your time." Meaning, no matter how much they try, they are not going to convince you.

I do not know this phrase... How about:
You seem to be working hard to sell me on that idea. You know I will decide for myself, right?

"Don't wheedle for nothing." ............. This does not sound natural as 'wheedle' means to persuade or flatter. You can say, "You can't wheedle anything out of me."

EastEmme is right.
You can also say: "You're spitting (or pissing) into the wind" if you want to emphasise that they will achieve nothing.
