Everything is worth trying to save. Take him to a vet right away. I bought my kid a leo from a breeder. He or she had parasites. The vet gave it a shot of vitamins and antibiotics I had to give it oral for a week. Mine sounded almost as bad as yours. I gave it Hydro-life for 2 weeks because it was just to weak to get and eat food. My vet said it needed a uva and uvb light. And a ceramic heat bulb for nights. No light at night it throughs off thier sleep eat cycle. Under tank heater no hot rocks. Two hides one for the warm side and one in the middle. And make one of the hides moist the one in the center. I was for sure mine was a goner, But mine is finelly turning around. Cost is alot if you have none to spare but let me tell you the gecko I bought was 15dollars and the rest about 300dollars. But when I scratch its chin it look like its in heaven. So to me it was worth it whats money anyway. Hope I helped.
