I agree with Scott.  A complete solution will probably involve a combination
of techniques.  BGP or firewall HA by itself is not enough to deal with all
the issues raised in providing fault tolerance in a multi-site, multi-homed
network.  You'll want to consider at how this affects your DNS and default
gateway assignments as well.

Here is a link you might find useful:

It makes mention of a multi-site BGP scenario (diagram 5).

Hope this helps,
