Default obsessing over chipmunk hole, HELP!!!

A couple of weeks ago Ginger and Bernie chased a chipmunk across our yard and watched it dive down one of its many holes. Ha, ha, ha...isn't that cute?

Well, since then Ginger has been obsessed with that hole. The minute I open my door she races barking and tearing at the hole and, even worse, attacks anyone who tries to intervene (she doesn't bite, just freaks out). It's not getting better.

My solution has been to keep her on a leash in my fenced yard. We tried burying the hole, putting one of dh's smelliest sneakers on the spot, vinegar (I don't know why, guess I thought I could change the smell of it), covering the hole...nothing works. As soon as she's free it's to the hole and being a complete maniacal, well dork.

Rewarding her with goodies for ignoring the hole hasn't worked yet either...

Help!!!
