Black flies and no see ums are really annoying but there is no way to permanently eliminate the pests. If you fog your yard with a pyrethreum you will kill those that are currently there, and their eggs, but a new population will eventually arrive and you'll need to treat your lawn again. Wish I had a real solution for you.
