Generally speaking, citations refer to the physical page on which the cited content appears. They do not narrow it down to a logical part of the document that appears on that page. Cite the page on which the citation in question occurs. I have never heard of any style guide that does anything other than this. The exception, of course, is citations of works that have numbered paragraphs. In that case, you cite the numbered paragraph. I'm not sure if the conventions of such documents allow for footnotes, but that would seem odd.
