This is by far the most difficult quest in the game, and should be (IMO) one of the 25-28 quests instead of one of the 9-12s...
the easiest way to finish this one is, once you've done as much of the dungeon as you can without having to deal with the nests, exit this dungeon and go one to complete everything else up to level 28. Then, as you've gained a few more levels (and hopefully found/bought a few more spellbooks for your fire spells-- the wasps AND the nests are immune to a lot of things, but Flame Thrower and Magic Bomb seem to work just fine), go back and attack the mines. I've always managed it (my characters are assassin and sorceress) by setting the sorceress to magic bomb, or flame thrower, controlling the assassin, and keeping myself pounding the function keys that recharge health and mana... and taking at least twenty or thirty tries to get through each mine.
