I'm trying to find a good brand or store where I can buy indoor compost that won't come with any unwanted bugs. I recently tried Westland compost, but it ended up causing me to throw out all my plants! Any suggestions?

Nematodes can be really helpful in dealing with those pesky compost gnats! They naturally eliminate the bugs, so give them a shot.
Instead of tossing your plants, try using insecticide on the compost. I usually spray mine with RAID while potting, and it takes care of the gnats quickly!
You might want to consider using coir and mixing in some perlite and bark pieces. Honestly, most compost has gnats, so this could be a good alternative for you.
