You have to recompile your kernel with "pseudo-device  bpfilter" 

how to:

cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
cp GENERIC MYOWNNAME

Where MYOWNNAME is the name of your machine. Then edit that file and
remove the comment for the line "pseudo-device  bpfilter 4".

Now, type this:

config MYOWNNAME
cd ../../compile/MYOWNNAME
make depend
make
make install
reboot

The system will boot with the new kernel. Now you have to make the
device.

cd /dev
./MAKEDEV bpf0
