Well Credited with and credited for both are correct idiom. It all comes down to in what context you are using.
John should get a lot of credit for the team's success.....Here Credit for is the correct idiom.
Credited with is generally used when some achieved is done......Newton is credited with various laws.

In your sentence A should be right.
