Eligibility for Italian citizenship is hinged upon whether or not it was previously renounced by the ancestor. Depending on time period (after 1946?)- there are exclusions from that also.
One other thing- make certain you understand all the positives and negatives of dual citizenship with Italy. For one- you are automatically excluded from ever having a security clearance here in the USA, etc. Also- there might be tax implications in the future.
