Would it bother you if the Mexican authorities came across the border in pursuit of someone??? I know I wouldn't like it.
To answer your question,no and it should not bother Mexico if we enter in pursuit of violet criminals. I don't know why you framed your question as it is but in the interest of better understanding of what is being said.
Mexican law inforcement enter the US regularly while guarding a cartel's drugs against rival cartels. They are somtimes confronted by US officials and a gun fight takes place. The police and drug transport retreats to mexico at which point US attorities cease fire and chase but the Mexican police may or may not cease shooting. That is a case where I believe the US police have every right to keep shooting and or persueing. You only questioned what I advocate,what course of action do you think effective in these cases? Opinions are what I am hopeing to get from this,not just oposition to mine.
I know for a fact that US authorities can not cross into Mexico, or Canada for that matter, in pursuit and by the same token, their authorities can not enter US soil. Having said that, do Mexican authorities enter the US while protecting drug dealers? Probably. But not on official business. I'm sure you are right and some of these officers are on cartel payrolls and working for the bad guys. About a year ago there was a shoot out between cops that were protecting drug dealers and the cops sent in to arrest them. (It happened at the Mexico City airport and I was there 3 days later)
You ask what I think would be effective. I agree with you and wish we could chase 'em into the ground, but...no country is going to put up with having their sovereignty violated. It's just the way it is. Wish I had a better answer.

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Journey to Ankeny - by Cindy Ladage. We left Illinois on the first day of July and headed north and west for Ankeny, Iowa. Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
