I also have houseplants (mostly succulents), and I've had gnats from time to time. Every time I begin to get gnats I start watering my plants with a solution of 1/2 tablespoon to 3/4 tablespoon apple cider vinegar mixed into 4 cups of water this will help get rid of the gnats. It helps kill the larvae and eggs they have in the dirt. Also let your plants go as long without water as possible between waterings.
By the way, watering all of the time with that solution doesn't hurt anything, and it keeps fungi from growing (mushrooms, etc.).

A little dish soap in a spray bottle, try and get the gnats, but spraying directly on the plant will deter for sure.( Mix about 20-1 with water.)

I know it sounds stupid, but when I was canning, I had gnats in the house with the veggies.. and I had to put out a glass of red wine. It attracts them like crazy, and after a couple glasses, they were all gone. It truly works!
