Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

A lien was put on my home by a pest company I never met never did business with are signed off on any work done at my property. This lien is preventing my loan modification from going through. The pest company keeps telling me to talk to my mortgage broker and the broker keeps saying he never authorized any work to be done by this company. What do I do HELP>
