Restore a backup and move on. If you weren't doing backups your hosting service probably was. Ask them to restore a backup of your account from before you were hacked. No big deal, just get it done quick before Google picks it up

And the admin login...??

well hopefully it was just a admin sql injection, in that case, just goto your sql database and change the admin name to whatever, and change the email back to yours. im not sure if there is a forgot pass but that always helps. try the new admin name with your pass first though.

Sorry to hear that. Was your password difficult to crack or was it a normal everyday kind of word? If it was someones name or something, your password probably got cracked. I suggest in the future you use some kind of combination like

Z8kJkKkl239JhAhE, which is nearly impossible to get cracked. Unless you were key logged. Which means whatever you type is being monitored and sent to the hackers.

Have you downloaded any new or suspicious software recently? If you have then you should backup the rest of your files and do a reboot of your hard drive. But I don't think that's necessary I think you were just brute forced because you used a simple password.

There's probably not much you can do unless you can reset your password through email.. try the official word press site for that.

What kind of site was it? Did you have a good alexa rank?

First off, calm down.

Second, if you still have FTP/Cpanel access, go there and take out your index.php file. A downtime when google crawls is better than indexing the hacked content.

3. Get a technician from your webhost to help you identify why you got hacked and to help you restore a backup.

4. Clean up your system (spybot, malwarebytes) and change your passwords.

5. Restore index.php and Ensure your wp is up to date.

Hope that helps.
