Mosquito bits and beneficial nematodes!

I second this - it's an effective combo!

A repot probably wouldn’t hurt. Better drainage, fresh soil, and a good pot rinse will help give the plant a reset

I’ve tried organic neem oil it was like the cheapest one on amazon and I loved it! That im combination with sticky traps was amazing because the oil killed the eggs and the traps killed the adults. The only issue is that it took a few weeks for them to all be gone because of the lifespan of the gnats.

Try using those fungus gnat yellow stick things in the pot. Worked wonders for me! That and watering less.
