You don't say what the bugs look like.
Try a about a quarter teaspoon of mild dish soap to a quart of water.
Spray it on the plants and especially under the leaves. Repeat every 5 days or so.
Do a yahoo image search for plant pests to see exactly what you have or post a photo online.

Put the plant in a plastic bag with a "no pest strip" and seal it up for a day.
