Like others have said, this foul needs to be prevented from even happening, but failing that it must be called before the snap. If the snap has already happened, then you need to waive the flag off because it now appears you don't know if it came out before (which is a foul) or after the snap (which is not), and if you are not 100% sure about the foul you shouldn't be throwing your flag.
But if you insist on enforcing this, it's B's ball after a decline, unless of course they don't want the ball.
