There is a company called Safers. The make an insecticidal soap spray that is environmental, pet and people safe. I have used it myself with great success. Good luck.
regular dish soap & water. take plant outside and pour the mixture over the plant. This will get rid of the bugs.
ypou have to re-pot the plants in fresh soil in the next size container. Spray them down with horticultural oil making sure all the leaves are covered.
