deck mount handheld shower on acrylic tub

Mistake: purchase acrylic tub from Menards 8 months ago-supposedly you can't put deck mount faucets on it-this was okay with me until I realized everything I wanted and needed for my deep soaking experience requires deck mount faucet systems. I want to rinse off, wash hair and clean my bathtub with handheld shower........no hose on the outside hanging in the tub (cheap acrylic tub won't handle this wear and tear besides I won't want it hanging out in the open I want pullout hose) The only thing I find that has a hidden hose is a deck mount system. Can I put only the hand held shower as a deck mount if the diameter of the inlet is small enough that it will fit on the deck and just drill a hole in the acrylic tub if I have the space for this? Can the tub filler itself and handles still be mounted on the wall? Where does the diverter need to be on the tub filler or with the handheld shower on the deck if I can mount on the deck of the tub?
