Full screen ads from unknown source

I keep getting pop ups, which either consist of full screen ads, or the Play Store opening on some app (often SuperB Cleaner), and sometimes both. These keep coming about a minute or 2 apart.

When I check recent apps, the title bar of the full screen ad is blank so I can't identify which app is responsible. Here are a couple of screenshots (this particular ad page failed to redirect).

I hadn't installed anything recently when this started happening, so I'm assuming it's due to an app auto-updated by the store, or I've somehow been infected by malware that Avast can't locate.

I've been trying to find the culprit with little success for days. Is there any app I can use that will identify that window for me, or which app is triggering it?

I'd appreciate any help in locating the culprit.
