do you know anyone near you with a tank that might be willing to take them?

Don't ask for a refund, most money-grubbing LFS will be happy to take them back if it means they end up getting paid twice for the same fish ....
That is in my experience, anyway.
If not stick it on their counter and leave.

What size is your tank? Don't mollies get reasonably big (6 inches i thought)?
my tank holds up to 15.6 us gallons(60 liters)

So how many mollies will you have, 5-6 in total?
At 6 inches each, following the inch per gallon rule you'd need a 30-36 us gallon tank, especially as i've heard they produce alot of waste....
You need to research each individual sub-species you currently own/plan to own (i know nothing about mollies!) on google'd do and add all their adult lengths together, thats how big a tank your going to have to get sometime, depending on growth rates and suchlike.....

I thought mollies only grow to be 3-4 inches? All of mine are balloon mollies, and because of their spinal deformity they only grow to 2" or less.
Still, for regular mollies, having 6 in a 15G is pushing it, if not outright overstocking, for sure.
I agree with the suggestion of finding a different home for one of the males. I've got just one male in my 38G tank with 3 adult females and a bunch of fry, and I have no fighting or bullying problems whatsoever. The male has no competition and spreads his attention around pretty equally, so everybody's happy.
