To add to the other commenter about cleaning walls, clean your drains, like especially sink drains. There are flies that live specifically in drains. You also gotta nuke them for a while until it helps with drainflies.

You don't even need to nuke the drains. Just cover them up. I had drain flies coming out of my shower drain for weeks and couldn't figure out how to stop them initially. Read online to block the drain for a couple days when it's not in use. I just covered the drain with a sink plunger and they were gone.

Thanks, I’ve done this. Cleared all the drains several times, and the kitchen fan/sucky thing. That one was really gross so we thought might have been the source but alas.
