Please describe your problem in detail, however I'm guessing you are having problems with dhcp clients and not the daemon side.
Did you emerge dhcp or dhcpcd? and then execute dhclient <interface> or dhcpcd <interface>

You can chroot into your system using the liveCD, as described in the handbook, and then emerge dhcpcd. After that you can reboot and you will be able to use the internet from your normal installation.

To automagically start your network interface, use: | Code: | | rc-update add net.eth0 default |
If it says something about net.eth0 not existing, do | Code: | | ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.eth0 |
and reissue the rc-update command above.
The Gentoo Handbook - Networking might be interesting too.
