Ant killer powder typically contains insecticides such as borax or diatomaceous earth, which are not acids or alkalis. They work by causing physical damage to the exoskeleton of insects rather than by chemical reactions.

Can a wasp sting be treated with acid or alkali?

Ant sting ejects out formic acid. It is rather weak in nature and can be treated at home by putting baking powder {which contains mainly bicarbonates of sodium, aluminium and magnesium} mixed with drops of water, on the infected area. The swollen area will heal soon. Baking powder can also be used as a mild antacid. This is expected to suffice your problem. :)
