OK I'm not in the US but I'm pretty sure that you can get them at most drug stores or HFSs. From research I've done on this, there aren't really any superior brands - just make sure you pick one with no fewer than 1 billion organisms per capsule (most have much more - the more the better and if you can find one pick one labeled "superstrain"). Also make sure you get one that needs to be refridgerated (if it doesn't that's your signal that all the organisms are dead and won't help you anyway!). Take them with food, and keep in mind that you need to give it a few months or so before you'll start noticing results.

I'd really recommend probiotics - I know I've had a lot of success with them. The key is to give them time though! Good luck!
