How To Get Rid Of Infection On My Citrus Plants

Question

Hi, my citrus plants have been affected with some kind of bugs that leave a trail of glue/shiny substance on the leaves as well as some brown small particles that look like insects on them. I have tried to clean with dishwashing liquid over and over again as well as some kind of pesticide which I bought. It keeps coming back and infecting all other plants. Help on how to get rid of them and how to protect my indoor plants for being affected by any bugs. thanks Selly
