I had that problem a few years ago. Oddly enough, none of the expensive stuff I tried did the trick. Finally I used Hot Shot foggers and they were gone for good. Good luck!

Plan a day out of the house and use HOT Shot Foggers. Not only will you get rid of fleas but anything else that may be around.

I've delt with this before. I spoke to a veternarian even though I did not have pets. He stated that Hot Shot foggers are great but one thing people don't realize is that some fleas come from your grass outside of your home. They affix themselves to your socks, shoes or pants and when you get into the house you have a problem. Be sure that you also treat the outside of your house just in case or make sure that if you can go through your garage first and disrobe and spray down your belongings before you enter the house with them.

Also, what works is stomping your feet vigorously! You can throw your own temper tantrum and get away with it!
