Found pests for sure this time! q

Ok today I was watering my orchids and I saw a bunch of fast moving little bugs on my orchid. They looked black or silver. I only found them on one plant. Then on another plant there were little flying bugs.

So what I did is took the two plants out of their pots and rinsed them in soap and repotted them in new media and clean new pots.

My next step is to buy neem oil and insecticidal soap. Which do yall think would be best to use? I Didnt see any bugs on my other orchids. Is it safe to assume they have it and treat them too? Or is it best to wait for evidence of pests? TIA
