We use Green light fire ant control w/ Conserve. You can get it at Lowe's for about $11 a bag.

It is the Spinosad granular type bait. It works, but rain will carry it off. I find a little on top of a mound normally works just fine, but some stubborn mounds require a second coating. It is even considered organic I think. I broadcast it around the kiddie's playscape, and that really worked.
