Sounds like you have "sugar" ants or "piss" ants. An old time remedy is to leave cucumber peelings out on your kitchen counter. For some reason these ants don't like to be around the peelings. Be sure to leave your iron on the counter also.

I recommend Terro liquid ant bait over anything else. Every spring we get an infestation of ants in the house. Terro is the only thing that reliably kills them off. I keep a spray bottle filled with a 50/50 mix of water and dishwashing liquid. This will kill ants on the spot.
