Don't freak out 
My suggestions:
put on your porch light tonight and collect some small moths for him. Put them in the fridge to cool them down (like 5 or 10 minutes) before you give them and then place them as close to him as you can, this way he doesn't have to work for them.
If you live where no biocide spraying (pest, weed, etc.) you can collect some grasshoppers or other insect - just make sure they are small enough and a bug you know!
I contacted someone I know in Tampa and if she checks her email over the weekend she may contact you.
Keep him well hydrated. A note about your way of getting water into him - I don't think it is a very good idea to give him water at the same time he is eating. He could easily choke so I would suggest doing it at a different time. I could be wrong, but...
He won't die and even though he might be a bit young to like his veggies, if he is hungry enough he will eat them. Luna's favorites were: butternut squash, strawberries and cherry tomato (cut smaller).
You could post again using "anyone in Tampa?" in the topic.
Ok, that's all I've got!
