There are thousands of types or remediation processes, I have had good success by combining Soil Vapor Extraction and Air Sparging (basically what the first responder recommended). Right now I am trying several in-situ biological techniques and electrical resistance heating also. Depending on where the contamination is, excavation may be the answer with disposal at an appropriate landfill.
I would recommend discussing the site with someone more experienced in environmental remediation, if you don't know anyone locally I'll try to check back on a more regular basis and would be happy to help.

Dual phase vapour extration or air sparging also sound like possibilites dependent upon you site constraints.
Good luck
