Sounds like you need to have her committed. Report her to the police, if she threatens violence against herself or others, they may be able to put her on a psych hold.

The only way to handle this situation legally would be to file an eviction/unlawful detainer action in Justice Court in Clark County, if the house is in Clark County. If you think that the threat to burn the house is serious, you could ask the court for immediate relief, or even call the police. If you turn off the water and air conditioning, you risk a complaint arising from harm to the children. You could of course turn off the gas and phone.
