take a look at the /etc/dhclient.conf man page. You can add a line to set
dns servers.

example:
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/dhclient.conf,v 1.3 2001/10/27 03:14:37 rwatson Exp $
#
#       This file is required by the ISC DHCP client.
#       See ``man 5 dhclient.conf'' for details.
#
#       In most cases an empty file is sufficient for most people as the
#       defaults are usually fine.
#
prepend domain-name-server 130.253.166.41;

just change 130.253.166.41 with the correct value
