How To Get Fruit On My Apricaot Tree When I Can’t Wake Up My Bees

Question

I have an apricot tree in my side yard it is blooming for a week now. My bee house bees didn’t wake up so I bought some more bees and taped them to the roof as instructed. They are gone after a week and I don’t see any flying about. How do I get my tree pollinated so I will get fruit. I moved my humming bird feeder over to the tree hoping they might help . nothing so far. what can I do.
