Running resolvconf from script

Hi,
I am on FreeBSD-10.1-i386. For some reason, DNS information on my system
sometimes 'evaporates' and I am left with no network access. To restore
internet, I have to execute the following sequentially (re0 is my
ethernet card and /etc/nameservers.list is a file I created which
contains the list of nameservers) :
ifconfig re0 down
ifconfig re0 up
resolvconf -d re0
resolvconf -a re0 < /etc/nameservers.list
While the sequence works well and restores internet, I would ideally
like to move the commands into a Bash shell script. But executing the
resolvconf commands from a script results in an error message "No
resolv.conf for re0" (or something to that effect) and 'resolvconf -l
re0' returns an empty/incomplete list, with no internet working yet.
So is there any way I can automate the work via a script ?
Thanks and Regards,
