Well, Maggie, you could always be a contestant on Hell's Kitchen. Your signature dish: Rat-a-ptui!
LOL.
Seriously, I'd be hopping mad at that incompetent exterminator and the landlord by this point.
Again, I suggest that if he doesn't get rid of them right away, to hire your own exterminator and deduct the cost from your rent. Keep a record of your rat trappings as a record in case the landlord balks and it winds up in court.
In California there is an tenet in law that residential rental units have what is called a "warrant of habitability". Your apartment, technically, is not habitable because it is rat-infested. If necessary you could probably even move to a hotel and bill the landlord for that expense, but what with your dogs and all I suspect that's a last resort.
