Dolores Umbridge. She only sent them after Harry Potter, the fact that Dudley Dursley was there was just an added bonus for her since not only did Harry get into trouble for using magic outside Hogwarts while he was under-age, he used it in front of a muggle.

It's not explained in the movie, but in the book, when Dolores Umbridge catches Harry trying to communicate with the Order of the Phoenix at her unsupervised fireplace in Hogwarts, she reveals that she's the one who sent the dementors after Harry. She knew he'd cast the Patronus Charm, potentially leading to his expulsion from Hogwarts. The Ministry needed to do whatever they could to prevent Harry from spreading the word of Lord Voldemort's return.

Dolores Umbridge sent Dementors to attack Harry so that he would use magic and be expelled.
