You may want to cover the vulnerable areas with a heavy metal mesh screen. It can be secured using screws and large washers. It won't look great, but it will keep the squirrels at bay. For a long term solution, you may need to look at installing aluminum soffits, which are more resistant to chewing.

This is a great place to go for advice, especially if you're low on funds and you could resolve the problem before calling and paying a service call, if it's an easy fix. I'm glad you are there for me.
