Thanks for the input. I haven't had any dairy yet- I've been very careful about that. She had really abnormal poops since birth, and her poop has been normal (looking) since mid-December, so that's why I think she is outgrowing her...

I've heard, but have not tried...if you cover the top of the plant's soil with sand, the gnats are unable to breed. Might be a cheap experiment worth trying...I guess you just have to wait a few days for the existing ones to die to see...
