You can try Anti-Malware Security and Brute-Force Firewall, Wordfence, and Sucuri. It's best to use premium version most especially with Sucuri.

You can use tools that scan your site remotely to find malicious payloads and malware locations. Sucuri has a free WordPress plugin that you can find in the WordPress official repository.

To scan WordPress for hacks:

1. Visit the Site Check website.
2. Click Scan Website.
3. If the site is infected, review the warning message.
4. Note any payloads and locations (if available).
5. Note any blacklist warnings.

WordFence is good for keeping your site safe, but I wouldn't necessarily trust a plugin to clean 100% of the malware.
