Did you run npm update to make sure you get the latest of your tree, and npm rebuild when you upgraded so any native modules already in your dependency tree would be recompiled?
Try different versions see if that works...
Here are the versions that work for me
npm v 5.6.0.
node v 8.11.3
gulp 3.9.1 for local
CLI: 2.0.1
If those don't work...
delete node_modules dir and package-lock.json.
Then run sudo npm install --unsafe-perm=true
