I think those are aphids. I had a similar issues. I first sprayed the plant down in my sink with cold water. Then after it dried, I made a spray with a base of water and added in rubbing alcohol, a drop of dish soap, a pipette of neem oil, and shook it up and soaked it on the tops AND bottoms of leaves. It did significantly help, but you need to keep applying it in order for the bugs to not return. This was for a house plant so it may be different for outside plants. They also sell neem oil spray in bottles ready for purchase and that’s much easier.
