Change the belt, drive belts don't cost that much. Conditioner is only a temporary fix. Also check belt tensioner.

I prefer the GoodYear Gatorback. Because of the cross-cut rib design, they don't make noise.

Go for a decent brand (Goodyear, Gates), it will cost you an extra $10 at the time, but it will be quieter. Belt conditioner is a waste of money in my opinion, belts are pretty cheap...
