It is so obvious that going at it from the employer end is the answer. A rigorous SS check would force them out of the country. And allow a guest program to work. We don't need a million guards on the border.

There would still be plenty of work for them in Southern California. Who does all of the yard work on everyone yard down there? Surely you must have hired them to do some of the grunt work on the contracts that you did when you lived there? You paid them in cash and left no paper trail right?
Unless the INS is raiding jobs sites this will continue forever.

The restaraunts and other low end jobs would take a bit of a hit; maybe half of the jobs take by illegals would be impacted.

The large agricultural farms will sign up for the "guest" worker program but the day labor area will stay underground, pretty much like it is today.
