They also have the Canon EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM Lens for $249 (scroll to the bottom of the first page of reviews) - Now on its way to meet my 7D!

Those are great deals on the Sigma and new Canon lens! The Canon lens has forced other manufacturers to reduce their prices significantly, by offering that EF-S 10-18mm IS STM at such a low list price! I would guess the Sigma are being heavily discounted to clear the shelves and make way for a new model that'll be announced soon.
There is nothing wrong with B&H's title. It's correct. In fact, that is an EF mount lens. It also is a DC lens, so has an image circle that's only large enough to cover an APS-C size sensor.
All Canon DSLRs... both "full frame" and "crop sensor"... are EF mount.
FF Canon DSLRs require full frame-compatible lenses: Canon "EF", Sigma DG, Tamron Di, Tokina FX.
All Canon APS-C cameras can use all those EF lenses, plus they can use lenses designed for "crop only": Canon "EF-S", Sigma DC, Tamron Di II, Tokina DX.
All the third party lenses are actually just "EF" mount, whether full frame or not. The "crop only" 3rd party lenses don't have the modified bayonet mount (EF-S) to physically prevent them from being fitted to a full frame (or APS-H) Canon camera, but of course would generally vignette heavily on those FF models.
Maybe the confusion is because Nikon shooters often refer to FX and DX cameras, FX and DX lenses.
Canon shooters generally do not refer to EF and EF-S cameras. They more typically refer to full frame, APS-H and APS-C (or just "FF" and "crop" ) cameras.
