I have heard of traps that are good for whiteflys.  I have never had the
flys so I have not used them, but it sounds like it would be worth a
try.  What I read said they flys actually prefer the traps to the
plants.  They are yellow sticky I think.

Sorry I cant be of more help as far as where to get them.
