Joe,
  what we have done on our llama farm is to take milk jugs, drill 1/4" holes in upper half and put fish heads, fat of meat, any garbage that will really stink inside, add water, cap and hang no more than 4feet from ground.  Do as many as you choose.  This attracts the flies and traps them.  There is also an insect called fly predators.  They eat the larvae of the fly, but have to be replace each week to 10 days and gets expensive.  Good Luck,
