Infected operating system: 10.7.5

Infected device issues: Startup drive is full of encrypted files with NEMTY_GWAXQFO-DECRYPT.txt in each folder. Of course the mac is sluggish, but can currently get to internet with Firefox or Safari, although not current versions of either browser. Primary use is file sharing.

Are there any cleanup tools for OSX?
Is erase the HD and reinstall OSX, then restoring files the only good method on this type of mac infection?
There is a RAID drive that is also infected. Possibly other network computers similarly ransomed. There is no onsite access currently.
