Only seen this one and from what I'm reading they don't cause major damage to mature plants.

If I picked up a insecticidal soap how would I apply it without bothering my flowers.

Depending on how close to harvest. Less than a month out? Nothing. Anything you apply that close to harvest WILL effect your flowers. If you do apply anything you'll need to wash your bud. If you're outdoors probably a smart idea anyway

Do you wash your bud with a soap and then rinse

I don't grow outdoors, so larger bugs are one problem I don't really have to worry about. If I were an outdoor grower, you damned skippy I'm washing them! A quick search on most growing forums will show you the why but the best reasoning for bud washing was presented to me by a friend on another site. Basically put a piece of clean glass on a table beside your plant and leave it there for your entire grow cycle. Once you've harvested look at the piece of glass and everything on it, plus bugs and various excrement, that's is what is on your weed. Go ahead and smoke it if you want to, but I'd try to mitigate as much contamination as possible.
