If I did set it up, I have lost any access to the 2FA. There must be some avenue, for business customers who undergo a catastrophic event, and lose absolutely 100% everything! Dropbox must have some for this scenario, even if it is a process that is currently undefined. But someone Dropbox needs to talk to me about this scenario and work with me to resolve it. How can I talk to somebody at Dropbox?

All customers, especially business ones, should (or rather would) have some sort of Business Continuity Planning in place as well as multi-site backups so that should one site lose all access to everything (e.g., Dropbox), it is recoverable and restorable from another service.
As has been said you need to log a ticket and ask for support, but, it is very unlikely you'll get access again. Its also worth pointing out that if the account is now no longer a paid one and its been 12 + months since last log in all data is deleted from within it due to inactivity.
