From how many IP addresses/networks? If apache is seeing connections,
then probably the network addresses (if not the IP addresses as well)
are real, not spoofed. I think blocking specific addresses as close to
the source as possible is the accepted solution: talk to your ISP. They
should be able to block addresses if you can provide them.
