Are you working with any recruiters? They can both help you polish your resume and get the attention of hiring managers. They may even be able to coach you on interviewing, if that's where you're having trouble. If you're job hunting full-time, work with around 3-5 recruiters at a time. (If you're just looking on the side, stick to 1-2.) I know recruiters have a bad rep, but they're not all spammers. The good ones, who develop real relationships with both candidates and hiring managers, can be very effective. In the meantime, maybe you could get some contract work through something like Toptal? (They set a decent rate floor; whereas I'd suggest avoiding Upwork and the like.) Since it sounds like you're in a cash crunch, another option to consider for quick cash might be TaskRabbit or even, yes, fast food.
