Fucking ants. I've been battling various types of these jerks for a while now.

The first go-round was with some ants that were burrowing under my front walk (brick). I kind of blew it off until they displaced so much dirt that the bricks started shifting. I tried a couple different things but Terro Ant Bait killed them in 24 hours. I sprinkled the granules and the ants immediately starting taking them into the colony. The next morning my walk was covered with hundreds of dead ants. They haven't been back since (1 year and counting).

My current battle is with some leaf cutter ants. These guys only eat leaves so traditional ant baits and poisons don't really work. This colony has decimated one of my new planted trees. The only thing that keeps them at bay is a combination of Boric Acid, Diatomaceous Earth, cayenne pepper and cinnamon. The boric acid has been covered already. The Diatomaceous Earth is basically a powder that acts as razor blades on the ants exoskeleton. The cayenne pepper and cinnamon are just a last resort because I'm at my wits end. I cover a 2'-3' radius from the ant hill with everything listed. I check on it every week or two and reapply when I see an ant creeping around.

Good luck with your ants. They sure can be a pain in the ass.

Sorry, I can't help you with the pet safe thing. I do have a lot of experience fighting ants since I bought my house 3 years ago and have been reasonably successful.

First summer we owned the house, ants invaded it. Mostly through the addition that now serves as a first floor laundry room.

I used the indoor terro ant liquids and they worked great. But I do believe the website says they weren't pet safe. It wasn't a concern for me.

Once you do win the indoor battle, take the battle out to the yard and don't let the ants invade again.

I keep several of these in my back yard all spring, summer and fall. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GRTNRJ4/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

They probably aren't pet safe either, but it's outside and completely encased in a pretty hard plastic. I keep them in places that are out of the way of my mower to make it easier. Right up against the house, garage, shed, fence, etc etc.

I spread a good dusting of this around the perimeter of my house. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B001B1KH1Y/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I also had carpenter ants in the base of one of my trees that this took care of as well.

I also sprinkle this bait around the house, garage, shed, etc etc. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0030697TQ/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Those three things outside, have meant I don't have ants inside anymore. I see lots of ant colonies and such as I walk the dog through my neighborhood. Some of them are pretty good size. But they aren't around my place. Or my neighbors for that matter, I think I've probably cleared up their ant problems for them as well.

EDIT

TLDR;
Once you do get rid of the ants inside, fight them in your yard so you don't have to fight them in your house again.
