It is not easy to use a sump pump in a crawl space. The drain ditch to the pump closes off with mud as does the pump even in a screened pit. You also need electric.
If you have standing water then fans will not be much help. Do you have adequate crawl space ventilation? If the water isn't standing then it may only be water seeking it's own level. The depth of the water line outside is the same inside.
