Business with a company outside of US

I live in Sacramento county and did business with a company located in Winnipeg Canada. We paid for items that we never recieved and want a refund for the items. The company has been ducking us for the past year and we want to file suit. How do we go about filing a small claims suit? The business transaction was done in Sacramento county.
