Try the drip edge first. Usually your shingles lap over the fascia into the gutter by at least 1", so I find it odd that water would run back up the slope and under the sheathing. You don't say if that is where the leaks manifest. Because it could be worse - there's a leak upihill somewhere and it only drips when it daylights ay the edge.
Ditto what pikopete wrote.
Try drip edge first. Ideally, the shingles would overhang the drip by about 1/4" and the drip would do it's job of transferring the water to the gutter.
Even without a gutter, the return hem on the drip would force any capillary back-tracking water down the hem and to the ground instead of behind the facia.
