Try spraying just soapy water - I'm not sure what kind of bugs you are dealing with, but it keeps stink bugs and aphids away!
Have you tried soapy water spray?? 1/2 mix. Top and bottom.

Lavender smells... all kinds of ? That has a good smell to it...soaps, oils, mist, sprays, ect... don’t need to much, just steady smell... make it nice for you too... R L P
GET u a Praying Mantis (or 2) & place it on the plant. It will eat the insects until they're gone. Once your insects are gone, u can place it out into the yard & it will be self-sustaining out there. Natural predators are very good for household insects.
Get a plastic bag large enough that will hold the plant plus enough to twist and close at the top, like you do with bread twists. Before closing the top, fumigate the inside with pesticide. Wait a week before undoing the plastic.
AND - only do the plastic bag trick above if you want to KILL your PLANT!!! OMG
it sounds like you have soil gnats... you can sprinkle baking soda on the soil - vinegar/water 10-90% spray lightly daily for a week - soil AND plant.
good luck
