 > _How the real pros would translate these needs into design rules for a calculator?_

Speaking as a pro I wouldn't use a calculator because I'd use a simulator and tinker with a few values until I got the response I wanted. I'd probably use standard building blocks like high-pass sallen key filters and cascade them until I got the desired response.

I might also consider using a notch filter to remove the problematic frequency area sufficiently.

I'd also be concerned about the filter circuit adding noise to what might be a very small input signal.

Bottom line: I would simulate to find the right type of filter that fits the requirements and then do calculations on what unwanted noise that filter might bring to the party.
