Your plant most likely has Leaf Spot of Schefflera Caused By Colletotrichum. It is a fungus and unfortunatly it is very difficult to get rid of. You can try to save the plant by using a systemic fungicide and in the mean time stop misting, and let the humidity drop.. This fungus thrives on humidity. Your plant might not like the lower humidity, but it will slow the fungus and just might save its life.
