Underground bees PLEASE HELP!?

Question

I am putting in my garden - I know it's late. But I took the showel and made my ground into brick like pieces to dig up and shake off the grass. After finishing most of the garden, we were attacked by little bees. -- The dirt is all messy now and I can't see a hole to spray. I'm doing this with my children. I need to know how deep is the nest? And what time of day are they most active? I have no other place to put the garden, and I really need to grow our food this year. I can't afford to call a bee person to come and save the day.
