You don't have any source URLs in your sources.list file? How can you
live that way? :-)

Duplicate those and convert the deb to deb-src.
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
Then run apt-get update. And then build-dep again.
