That's insane.
It's very hard to stop them.
A firewall doesn't help too much.
You need to block them before they come that far.
What I've heard is that a good traffic filter is the best solution.
There are some companies that are specialized in making systems to detect and stop heavy ddos attacks.
They cost alot but will be worth it for things like this.
Your host should know about this or call a security expert.
