Yes, you should call enbridge or direct energy first. They kept on changing the names.. They are quite helpful. My gas line outside the house was leaking (smell), they came right away (free). For your fireplace, as it is your appliance, you may need to pay.
Yes, the pilot is also important. If it is off and you did not turn off the controls, it could be the problem. Before you relight it, you should turn the control off for a few hours to make there is no gas in the fireplace. Read the lighting instruction carefully. Or wait until the fall to re-light the pilot.
I saw the gas repairman using soap water to test the joints, which makes sense to me. Definitely, do not try to re-light the pilot, if you smell gas.
