It sounds as though your spotlight indexes are corrupt.
Here's a good site for fixing problems like that:

this worked great... or seems to be in the process of doing so.
Inside the SPOTLIGHT preferences I 'prevented' all the attached and
internal drives, then undid that. It is now indexing, the SPOTLIGHT
icon is active, and when I click on that icon it indeed tells me
it's doing its job. My FINDER results for searching for certain files
has been Hugely Slow and flakey. Now I think I know why.
Thanks for this.
