Can someone oblige me identify these bugs and how to catch rid of them?

The bug is on the outside of our home by and on our door. It's black with any orange or rosy markings. It almost looks like a lightning bug, but it's not. It have I believe 6 legs. It's hard to describe. It's almost a cross between an ant and a lightning bug. If anyone know what it could be, or has a perception, could you let me know? Also, once I find out what it is, I could look up a picture on here to craft sure that's it and if you know what I could use to get rid of them, that would be great. It seem every year we're overrun with some type of bug. Last year it be these little knats, now it's these. Anyway, any thinking would be appreciated. Thank you!

Answers:    Take a look at some of these pictures.
