Remote Strobe Flash

[rstarre]

I got a Fuji digital camera as a gift. I would like to buy a set of strobe flashes with umbrellas to take portrait photos. My camera does not have an outlet to connect a remote flash. Only the flash on the camera. Can I buy a sensor that will trigger the two stobe flashes at the same time the flash on my camera fires? Also I was thinking of putting something in front of the flash on my camera that will reflect the light up & sideways to set off the remote flashes but not flash on the subject
