Constant SPAM COMMENTS! HELP!

I’ve tried to set up the two-step process to stop all the spam messages i keep getting on my blog! It is not working and each spam comment has misspelled works in the comment, a fake email address and fake names. I mark them as spam and try to delete them, but somehow someone has found my blog and sends these spam comments every day!! HELP me to get rid of and STOP SPAM COMMENTS!!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there. Unfortunately this happens sometimes. Spam comes in waves and human spammers often target specific blogs. The best thing you can do is to keep marking those messages as spam (don’t just delete them) and Akismet will learn to filter them out. You might want to temporarily disable email notifications for comment until Akismet starts filtering them out so you don’t receive an email each time one comes through.
