What to do if my daughter’s father just admitted to the family that he’s been selling and using heroin along with other drugs?

I filed for legal sole custody but until our court hearing, should I allow my daughter over their house if he is there?

Given what you have written about you should consult with a family law attorney about an ex parte application for a temporary order mandating that the father of the minor not have any visitation with the child unless visitation is overseen by two trusted adults.
