I'm running BruteForceBlocker on a bunch of the boxes and I
have no
problem with it. can you check the pf table, if it is
growing? Can you
also see messages like:

User root from 67.15.192.35 not allowed because not listed
in AllowUsers
67.15.192.35 was logged with total count of 1.
Failed password for invalid user root from 67.15.192.35 port

Adding IP to the firewall...

in your auth logfile?

If you want to check the pf table use command like:
# pfctl -t bruteforce -T show
