It's been a long time since I did anything in Pygame, but IIRC the basic idea is that your sprite should have a rect attribute that describes its position on the screen. When you receive a mouse click event, you get the position by calling pygame.mouse.get_pos(). You can then check for a collision between a rect centered at the mouse position and your sprite's rect by calling pygame.sprite.collide_rect() on both rect objects.

A good example can be found here.
