Have you contacted the police station directly? I would call them and let them know you are the landlord and you just found out about the raid, etc. They may have sealed off the house for investigation and you wouldn't want to mess with that. You do need to secure your house asap. Get some kind of door on there. Contact your insurance company and tell them everything. Give them the reports and the number of the officers in charge of the investigations.
As for going in and starting to clean up, you have to wait until you have regained possession of the house. The tenants have to to return the keys and tell you they are officially gone even if they physically move. If that doesn't happen, there are steps you need to take which are determined by your state/county/town. You can wait for the eviction hearing and be granted possession at that time.
Do everything you can to have that hearing moved up.
