take the system offline, install fresh o/s on new server, re-deploy clean copy of code.

slowly and carefully move only non-executable files over (uploaded images, post-inspection database dumps).

if you deployed using git checkouts and the like you will also have to manually go through all the commits/branches to make sure they didnt muck about with your code to install a backdoor.
