Answers:    Somewhere in the vicinity the Fire Box is a shut-off valve. It may even hold a pilot light. There should be a placard recounting you what to do. If not, light a candle and bring it hard by to the ignition point. Use a paper clip to hold a small piece of thesis and dip it in the wax and agree to it light and beside the other hand freshly open the stopcock very slowly until it lights. A lighter stick is sold at most stores for this purpose. Never donate the valve embark on un-lit.
How Much should I charge ...
The gas company provides a great service. Call them and they will send out a service man for free to check it out. My pilot pale switch got dirty and it didn't come on properly after a while. The guy fixed it within a couple of minutes. I found a couple of good links at my source.
