I think the best route is to prevent them from targeting you.  Normally I'd suggest layering some defensive spells so that they have to spend a lot of actions working through them, but it sounds like that won't work here.  If they're getting several dispels per round, they'll chew through your defenses too quickly.There is one spell that looks like a very good option, though:  flashburst (from SC).  It has long range and blinds everyone within 120' for 2d8 rounds.  The spell itself has instantaneous duration, so it can't be dispelled after it's gone off.  If you can blind all those dispellers, they can't target you.  You can protect against area dispels by using buffer spells at a higher caster level (read magic works well for this).  However, flashburst is Sor/Wiz 3, and you might need to cast it a few times before it sticks on everyone -- not sure if you have a caster who can do that or not.</blockquote>
