I brewed it yesterday and it already has spewed out the top a little bit. Is there ANYTHING i can do to prevent it?

Attach a blow off tube if you have one. If not, I'm not really sure what to do.

What size blow off hose?

I use a 1/2" hose, it fits over the upright stem in your 3 piece airlock, then place the other end into a growler or some other container of star san.

Take the lid off of your airlock and attach a tube to the tube in the center of the airlock. Run the other end of the tube you attached into a bucket of water. The "blow off" will run through this tube into the bucket.

is the beer that flows over still salvagable?

+1 on the blow off hose advice given so far. But looking at your pic, IMHO it looks like the worst is over. If I were you, I'd clean out the airlock, sanitze, and call it good.
But if I were you, then you'd be me... and you'd be blowing krausen all over MY carpet... I can't stop you no matter who you are

Depends, how long has it been fermenting? Definitely get yourself set up with a blow off for your next beer. I use one 9/10 times a brew.
