Is there a company that can detect leaks in the water pipe coming to the house without having to dig up the neighborhood? The water company has flushed its pipes but that hasn’t helped.

You can detect leaks between the water meter and your home. Make sure nothing in your home is using water (or turn the black shutoff valve) then see if the meter is moving. If it is then water is going somewhere.
But why do you suspect a leak? With 60+ pounds of pressure in the line a leak would cause water to flow *out* not in. A leak large enough to allow dirt in while water is flowing through would definitely show on your meter and would likely create a wet spot in your yard (or the street).
