Those are probably fungus gnats. They live in the top inch or so of the potting soil and feed on your plants' roots. There's a product called Gnatrol that can be used to kill the larvae in the soil. Just water it in. It's a natural product & safe to use inside the house.

Let your plants dry out between watering.put a layer of sand on top of the dirt. we had the same problem here at my office, it was from too much water the little bugs like it.

That's from overwatering. Make sure the soil in the pot is dry to the touch before you water.
