    I'll spare you the story, but I went with the nuclear option and used outside granules indoors.

    Wal-Mart Eliminator Granules for Fleas/ Ticks / Ants. I paid $2.50 for a red and black canister.
    Spread the granules all over problem areas then swept / vacuumed the next day. Problem solved.

    Today I heard that lemon juice works. Probably smells pretty good around the house too.
