I can imagine how upset you are… the good news is that you got someone to do some free cleaning for you… but joking aside, this is a serious issue. Technically, your landlord did allow access to your rental without the proper notice as required by your state laws… In california the landlord must provide at least a 24 hour notice prior to entering your unit– due to neglect or ineptness management allowed a company to access your unit illegally.
So now what?
If you feel there is a possible threat to your identity or theft of Credit Card numbers, I would suggest you contact your credit card companies in order to have new cards issued. You may even get management to agree to pay for the cost of credit monitoring program for a year or so. Have your renters rights been violated, yes. Is it a big enough deal to make a big case out of it, maybe. You could always sue, or file a complaint through the RPA. The simple answer to this– get an alarm.
