with who do I file a harrasement charge?
You have to prove when,were,why it happened.Tell the police what carrier the harassing text messages are on.
California has a limit of 180 days to file charges with the EEOC for sexual harassment cases. If filing with the DFEH, there is a one year limit to file.
If you left your job due to harassment, you need to not let the person get away with it. You should contact your employer and file charges.
Proving harassment can be very difficult. It depends on the frequency of the behavior. For instance, stalking is two or more unwanted encounters with the person. Threatening letters, emails constitute harassment, too.
As with all offenses, you must have some CREDIBLE evidence that the harassment is taking place. Video, audio, eyewitnesses, etc. Criminal charges are not brought simply on unsubstantiated claims.

With no history of harassment between them before that it is not harassment to say Happy birthday. If you asked her previously to stay away, just get a restraining order.
Harassment over computer has different charges. in all states it can be a year in jain or probation / restraining orders.
It all depends... if your state has a law against cyber bullying or even harassment all you need to do is print off what he/she is saying, get an adult (or trusted friend) to help get it to the court and file for harassment charges.
Your local PD.
You need to report harassment to a counselor, a trusted teacher or other adult. Pressing charges is probably the last resort.
