Seal up the holes where they are coming in with thick sheet metal or some expanded metal. If they have not all escaped, it won't be a problem after a few days. If you have a bird feeder or other such rodent attractant; remove it for a few days or place it near your property line next to your nearest neighbor. Your neighbors house will be a better home for them.
Squirrels have a small range of just a few acres and are territorial. Just like with thieves, you want to make your home least attractive. They will move on eventually.
I highly recommend a pellet gun. A neighbor told me he only pumps it 5 times, he thought it was stun mode. Until one started shaking when it hit the ground. He now pumps 10 times and tries to bury them before his wife finds out.
Just know if you get rid of all the squirrels you'll probably have more nuts around you. I know this from living in downtown Atlanta. The place is full of nuts.
