First off, fogging will not kill ants. It may kill a few workers, but not all, and will not kill the queens or the nest. Secondly, if you you fog the attic or use any repellent pesticide (most foggers contain pyrethrum that is very repellent to insects and ants), it will cause the ants to get very active, and possibly "bud" or divide the colony into several new colonies. This is the number 1 rule and why you should never spray pesticides indoors for ants.
What I would highly recommend is to #1 - determine what species of ants you have. #2 - use a baiting strategy using either an indoor gel bait such as Advion Ant Gel, Gourmet Ant Gel, etc, or use the KM Ant Pro System outdoors to get control and eliminate all ants.
I know this is short, but before you just start setting off foggers or spraying and causing more a problem, you really need to consider the consquences. I would recommend to stop any spraying for anything and only use baits until the ants are gone, then start routine spraying again for general insects.
If you need help, or have questions, just post them here.
