I need to know where the probes are coming from so I can eliminate them. The only problem is I haven't the slightest clue on where they are. I would actually prefer to know how I can find out where they are (ie. go talk to someone) rather than someone just giving me the coordinates. But I'm so desperate right now, I don't care.

The Melnorme know where they come from, and the Probes themselves tell you (via a different coordinate system).

The Thraddash give you a clue too,they don't tell you the exact location of the star,instead,they tell you the direction where the probes are coming through,poke in that direction and you'll find what you are looking for.

If you have your portal spawner, one of the dots on the QSpace starmap will drop you into hyperspace VERY close to the probes' origin point.
It's not in the midst of any other race's territory... and keep in mind it's a world with no surface, as the Arilou tell you.

I usually just let the probes reproduce, they provide ALOT of resources, and they are easy to kill.

I'd be interested to know you're probe kiling technique. I use Fwiffo and the fight takes a long time because first you have to get them to follow you the right distance behind you, and even then it's no guarentee that they'll stay there while you BUTT them to death.
