Why is my dog lickng the air and drooling?

Question

When I came home from work today my dog was licking the air (like he does before he throws up) and drooling. He hasn't thrown up or anything and that's why I'm asking whats wrong with him. He also has been farting and burping alot. Iv read about bloat in dogs online and the only thing is is that he's not in pain, I can push on his stomach and it doesn't bother him. He's walking around fine and the licking is getting better but I was just wondering I there was anyone that know if this is just him being nausiated or if I need to take him to the emergency vet. I don't have money right now to take hIm to the vet so that's why I'm asking. Please help I'm very worried

Sounds like he could be having a seizure.  There are several different kinds

If the dog indeed was truly bloating it would be a life and death situation that would require a trip to an emergency vet if your vet is not open.  There is no waiting when a dog bloats.

he could still have a belly ache, or have eaten something that didnt agree with him. some dogs also lick llike that and drool when they have a bad tooth.

He's either retarded or just wants to lick the air, or has a problem.
You probably gave him food bad for him or he got into his self.
