A bit late, but the following works pretty fine for me.

var ownerWindow = Window.GetWindow(yourControl);

Most likely you are on the applications active window in the moment you interact with the control.

So in that case, this other post on stackoverflow could be helpful too:

Assuming the Control is directly below the Window, you can call GetParent on the LogicalTreeHelper.

You may, of course, need to Use the LogicalTreeHelper to traverse the tree if the Control is not a direct descendant.
