I'd hate to break it to you but you're not going to be able to find anyone selling either of those genera near you. Cephalotes and Odontomachus are not native and there are only two species of Strumigenys in your area, and very few ant keepers are going to be selling those small, rare species.

You could try to apply for a liscence? Sorry, but california does not have mush to offer in terms of ants like these. Some more common species I would reccomend are acromyrmex and cyphomyrmex, look like cephalotes (kinda?) and grow fungus.
