Your dish-drain look like a battle ground? Your countertop look like a Civil War reinactment?
We're fumigated quarterly - inside and out - and while it keeps them at bay for a period of time (not that long), they come right back too. Mind you, so do the scorpions.
What we have, we only get in if the windows are open, so I couldn't say with certainty whether or not they're around during the hotter months. But if the windows are open and the kitchen lights on and the screens haven't been sprayed recently.... it's unbearable because the damn things have no sense of navigation and continuously zip right past your ears!
I dont find them in the sink much.
But they crawl around on the counter all the time.
Last night I found one in my bathroom That atleast doesn't usually happen.
You may have to grab a dead one and put it in a jar or baggie and then show an exterminator. Then they can spray for that bug.
Or you could take the sample to your county extension office. Give them a call and they should be able to help.
I did that once and the bug guy said he couldn't see anything in the container. I swear it was in there but it had died in there. I had that lid on as tight as could be.
How you tried calling your county extension office? They usually have somebody there ready to answer questions.
I worked a summer there when I was kid and there is always somebody on hand that knows bugs and how to get rid of them. But I'm also from an ag state.....
Flease are very tiny, are they that small? Could they be roaches? Roaches come out and night, scatter when you turn on the lights, and love the kitchen because of the food.

Yes, very small- look like fleas. Certainly not roaches. Neither are good but the latter would be worse.
