Replace the whole driveline as a set or you'll replacing all of it again soon anyway. You can get a good quality set for about $180-190

It's not that difficult to do your self, the trickiest part is just breaking of the old chain and riveting on a new one (don't use a clip-on masterlink). You can buy the tool to do this yourself for about $60-70 off eBay or see if a local shop can just rivet it on for you if you wish. The installing of the sprockets is not too difficult in and of itself.
