Uh... they'll be in their country. We're always being told it's well defended and highly militarised. And they're already almost under 100% US sanctions and have been for quite some time. I don't really know what the US could do that would damage the Iranian economy more.
If the Iranians pull their guys back into Iran that will probably end things for the Houthis without their support and expertise but to say that the US will then decide to go into Iran is a stretch. Likewise I don't see Israel going into Iran unless it's a specific targeted action against a nuclear site. Too many of the cities are holy and they respect each other's holy places. Mostly.
