How to find a fundraising consultant? Do we need one?

[Cruiser]

We are in the process of raising capital for our venture after a successful proof of concept.
Should we look for someone to help us raise money, aka fundraising consultant / DB broker, or should we try to do it ourselves?
How do you pay such fundraising consultant when there is no money in the company at the moment? a % of the investment? equity? both?
Thanks
