I think "I" would be tempted just to wipe off the drops and keep riding. After being parked for that length of time the seals may be dried out and a bit of leakage and exercise may be help bring them back to life. If not, then you have choices to make.
The only time I had fork leaks they were due to bent forks and hard landings off road. I removed the forks and had a shop repair them. Yeah, I took the easy way but it was worth it to me.
