They have two non-rackmount units - one that has a level control (probably the one you need), and another without so you can put it into an effects loop with a gain control, such as on a PA). I've seen them in catalogs for something around $250-300., which means that you might be able to wheel and deal them lower at Guitar Center, with their policy of meeting or beating advertised prices (be sure to bring a copy of the ad - even if it's from the internet, etc.)
I have the full-size FBX-901, and it's great. While it won't absolutely eliminate feedback, it does make tremendous improvements. Read the instructions and follow them and you'll be a happy customer. Sabine claims around a +9dB volume improvement, and that's pretty close to what I find. I also notice the overall sound at high volumes is clearer sounding due to a lack of near-feedback resonances.
