If you have checked your breaker panel, and are sure all wires are tight and nothing is corroded or loose, then the problem is probably outside the house. I had the same problem years ago, and I had a long wooden stick that i used to tap the connection feeding my house. The lights flickered, and I knew the problem was at that connection point. I called the electric company, and they repaired it. Fast forward to today. A number of months ago I lost power to half my house. I have 220 volts coming in, so half the house is on either line coming in. There is no loose connection here. I called the electric company and they would not service me. The thing I did, and you may need to do, is to write a formal complaint to your states' Public Service Commission. They will investigate the lack of service that you should be getting, and contact your local power company to expedite the service and repair. Even now, after a complaint filed and a few calls from the power company, I still have not had any service here. I just filed my second complaint with the local Public Service Commission. I'm waiting for both a telephone call and written reply from the power company.
