I keep getting commercials targeted for California and I live in Texas.  For example, there is this obnoxious California lottery commercial that plays at least 10 times per hour, there is another healthcare commercial targeted for the Bay Area.  How do I stop that?

rarely from other places not where i actually live

I get them for Texas- mostly political add.

This is because, whoever your internet provider is, they are pulling an IP address with geo location info from another state and giving it to you therefore the app or device that you're using, is using that IP geolocation instead of your physical location.
