Oh dear me, well if you are unable to clear it out yourself, get friends and family to help, or hire out. Then just plain start over. Now you will have a clean slate and can start fresh again with grass or whatever you wish.
A good start would be killing the weeds, adding some fresh dirt & planting grass seed. Or if you are impatient like me, consider sod.
If there was a lawn before the weeds you may be able to revive it if it hasn't been too long. If there is evidence of yellow or brown grass and if the weeds are broad leafed, you can kill the weeds with Spectracide broad leaf herbicide after which you can water and fertilize the grass.
