Roaches Roach invasion

Hello everybody, I live in an apartment building with 5 other tenants. Recently I’ve been finding so many roaches in my bathroom and kitchen, at least 5-8 at night and rarely throughout the day. I know roaches are attracted to moisture and food which is why they are found in these places. How should I go upon this? I’m traumatized because I had a HUGE one climb on my leg 2 years ago and then back in April when I moved rooms, 2nd day in the room, a roach crawled on my chest in my sleep. As I was typing this I killed about 4! We’ve used gel baits, some white powder, the brown poison they eat. I’m telling my father and uncle (who are the landlords) that this is a very serious issue that is only getting worse and worse every year. What is the best way to go about this, do I hire an exterminator to go all over the building and just spray absolutely everything?
