How do I get rid of ear pressure from a sinus infection?

I've tried all the recommended relief crap on the internet. I'm in excruciating pain, I haven't slept for two days, my throat hurts to the point where I can't talk, and I can't go to a doctor. I need something that'll get rid of the pain immediately. I can't stand it anymore. I've missed a weeks worth of classes because of my d*mn ear. I've tried the water, holding my nose and blowing, peroxide, 6 different sinus drugs, chewing gum. I have no transportation to a doctor nor the money to pay them. Please help me.

Update:

I'll rephrase an earlier statement: I have no money. When I say no money I mean full out welfare, living with relatives, no possessions broke. Unless I steal them I'm not getting meds.

Update 2:

Also, I've had a 99-102 degree fever for three weeks. I had the flu for two weeks and now my infection.

Update 3:

On top of my fever and pain I've been vomiting and coughing up a lot of mucus. (Those are two different thoughts. I'm not vomiting mucus.) I'm trying to be as specific as possible.

Update 4:

My face is really swollen and moving my jaw causes more pain than my ear.

    Antibiotics, use some cunning and you can get your hands on some....trust me! :)

    Also I've been on antibiotics for 2 days really. I woke up today with a bloody nose. Fixed that went back to sleep and with the sinus drainage from the infection most the blood seeped down my throat. Blow my nose BLOOD cough BLOOD but lol i did notice that the pressure in my ears was going down. (Something to look forward too lol)
