Houston Gnats Help!

Ok, I admit I am not a fan of Houston. I moved here to support my husband being close to his family.
That said, I made changes. I exercise in before sunrise and after sunset between April and October.
I avoid the highway and purchased a lot of flood insurance.

Yet here we are. The gnats this year are killing me. I look like I have a disease and no matter how much we clean the house, avoid standing water in the backyard I get bitten.

I've tried the home remedies with the vinegar and soap to "catch" them. I've used bug repellant on myself. I've read everything I can find online with how to deal with them. So help me, here are my questions:

1. Is this seasonal? Meaning will these things go away at some point?
2. Have you found anything that works for you or your family as a repellant or catcher?

One more side note, I'm white, really, really white, as in irish white and my spouse is Hispanic. He doesn't get bites at all.
