Boric acid around the perimeter of rooms and outside. It has been used for decades. they take it back to the nest and die.

Can't be used if you have pets though.

We had to get an exterminator in they were so bad. Luckily we haven't seen one since. No magic cures here...we tried everything. The worst part is, I have a phobia of them (myrmecophobia), so that made it a million times worse for me.
