I've dealt with those little bastards a lot. The best method that I have found is just good old flypaper. Kind of unsightly, but they do the trick, and fast. I would put 1-2 overnight up near where they seem to be coming from, and that should do the trick. You will find a few straggler usually, but they can be dealt with with spray or just swatting them. Be sure not to leave out any meats. This is where they come from. Common spawning areas are trashcans, and also in sink garbage disposals when they are not turned on regularly.
have your trashcans covered ^___^
Take a mayo jar, put some vinegar in the bottom.
roll up apiece o paper like a funnel. place the small end in the jar but not touching the vinegar. they will fly in get trapped and drown.
