I'm surprised this has not been answered yet. Neither bleach nor ammonia are apparently more or less effective at killing ants than pesticides. Although, ammonia may have an effect on removing the chemical trails ants leave behind to pick up on later.
However, your question is worded in such a way as to make me wonder if you (or someone who reads this) might try to combine bleach and ammonia to kill ants. What happens may or may not kill ants. It may, however, kill you, your pets, and your children.
Bleach and Ammonia create (in an almost instantaneous James Bond-ian way) chlorine gas, which is certainly harmful to humans.

And, I'm sure, more besides. It is a fun "warning" type science experiment (which, of course, no one should try at home) to pour a little bleach onto the sidewalk (and I mean a little) and give it a little squirt of ammonia-based window cleaner. Then wait a minute or two to watch the little slowly rising cloud of noxious gases. It's actually quite impressive.
