If you are sure it IS static, then Steve is 100% corect. Try spraying a plant mister around the house to restore some humidity, this will reduce or eliminate it for a while. Static should only be a very quick spark and a single jolt whenever you touch something that is earthed, (radiator, pipe, switch plate etc.) If it's any more severe than that get your eathing/wiring checked.

As the weather turns cold, the air in your house becomes drier due to the continuous heating of the air. To cut down on static electricity, use a humidifier in your house.

Sounds like a problem with either the earth or the live cables. Get a sparky to check it out.

It needs dealing with quickly, before you get seriously hurt. I know it's not going to be easy, but I'd stop turning the lights on until it's been dealt with.
