bike tire tube help?

I own this bike: http://www.walmart.com/ip/20-Huffy-Rock-It-Boys-Bi...

for what I need it's a fantastic little thing and was cheap too. The tire went flat so I pumped it back up and within the day it was flat again. So I bought a new tube, a 20" tube that says it fits tire widths: X 1.75 and many more. My tire itself is 1.75 (Says right on the tire) and the tire is 20" but this new tube is to big for both the tire and the rim... Like literally when I put the tube on the rim I can fold it over there is quite a bit extra.

Can someone help me with finding the right tube?

IF it makes a difference the tube I bought says: Standard 20" Schrader Valve Tube

and the bike I have is a little kids bike. Is there a difference?

    The tube is always bigger until you pump air in it. Have you tried pumping the tire up? If it states on the package it'll fit your tire and rim; then chances are it will.

    In danscomp.com---go to the Tubes section ( BIKE PARTS) and you'll see the Dan's Ultra Lite Tube ( Select Option ---the size of your bike tube is specified). Costs less than six bucks dude----

    I did try to pump it up and it was just kind of scrunched up in the tire itself. I did however go get another one and it fit. Thanks for your help though ^_^
