I would hire somebody to come and spray your house once a month for a year. There is no good way to get rid of them. I moved into an older home 13 years ago this year and we had a real problem. I did all the same things you did and we have seen fewer and fewer each year. I haven't seen any the last 2 years, we have had a bug guy come a spray the last 2 years every month. You just have to keep doing what you are doing and they will go away, but hiring a bug guy will help the process go faster.

Boric acid, it is very effective when used properly for killing cockroaches and most other insects. You can also get a house lizard, they are natural enemies and will eat them.

If you have a few, you have millions. Time for an exterminator. But if your neighbor has them, they will just come back.
