I always dealt with that in the following manner,enter her lair,cast cloudkill,exit her lair.Wait a few minutes and go back inside.BTW your Paladin should have ,under special abilities (the star symbol) the ability to slow poison twice a day.The cloudkill will eliminate her spider swarm,then you should be able to melee her to death with little,or no trouble.
