While I don't know all the details of your case, it would seem as if bankruptcy is the only way to stop the garnishment. Once your bankruptcy is filed in federal court, the garnishment can be halted.

Is it legal to obtain a loan and then declare bankruptcy soon after?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Haven Law Group, P.C.
