You can probably add the IPs to a block list in htaccess.

Also if you do have your own domain you can use Cloudflare as a proxy that will give you some protection from attacks and they do have a deny list you can use. Also you can block by country a lot easier with their service.

Yes, we can. And we just launched a new DDoS mitigation feature that will help CloudFlare users even more.
