Flies dislike the smells of lavender, eucalyptus, peppermint, lemongrass, cloves, mint, camphor, marigolds, cinnamon, and basil. (There may be others) You can pick a scent or multiple and have them around except for where you'll be having them exit. Once you think most are out you can have the scent everywhere and it should help keep anymore from wanting to come in.
The scent does have to be noticeable, like where you walk in and go "oh peppermint!" (Or whatever you choose). So certainly choose something or a combination you like the smell of.
There are various ways you can get these into the air, the plants themselves, oil diffusers, plug in aroma things, sprays, a potpourri thing for a couple, a wax warmer for the camphor... What you choose will dictate the best way to spread the scent.
You could also get some Venus fly traps. Yes the flies are killed but it's a purposeful death, circle of life lol
I have no idea how to get rid of the brats outside of somewhat psycho ideas

No wonder I like flies, common enemies.
