The key to long term financial security is not to earn more but to spend less. Every penny you save is like earning a penny. You probably think there is nowhere you can cut back but you'd be surprised. Try keeping a diary of every penny you spend and I mean every single penny down to the last cup of coffee. It may surprised you what you can cut out or reduce your spending on. Do this for a month or two and you will be able to work out an budget you can stick to which will prevent your spending getting out of control.
If you can find another job as well (bar work seems the obvious choice as it is in the evenings) just to help you get back on your feet. Also speak to any creditors you have about possible reducing the repayments. Most people prefer to get a little less than end up with nothing so nobody wants you to go bankcrupt.
Don't be tempted to get a loan to pay of debts, you will be in debt for even longer and end up paying back much much more.

Get a night job delivering pizzas, or an early morning job throwing papers. You can make $1000 easy this way. You just need to realize that you will have no life for this month. Get another job, go work at a retail store for as many hours as you can get. Basically, just get another job.
But dont stop there, once you get these bills paid off, take a look at what got you behind in the first place. Are you spending more than you make to keep up with the Jones'? Try making a budget and spending less than you make.
Live your wage.
Cut out all of the extra exspenses that got you behind in the first place and save some money. Get an emergency fund of $1000 in the bank, that you only use for emergencies! Not a new stereo or new shoes. Pay cash for things instead of using a credit card. That way, you wont buy unless you have the money. You will find you need a lot less than you think you do. Good luck.

Since you are already working full time with as much overtime as you can do which precludes working more overtime or working a second job, go through your possessions and sell whatever you can on Ebay since this will not require spending alot of money to make money, only a small fee is required after the sale. It can be done early in the morning, late in the evening, or on weekends with only a minimal investment of time. There is no middleman, and sales has the highest rate of return.

There are two ways to make $1000 in a month. Cut all expenses that aren't necessary. You'll be amazed at how much you can come up with there.
If that's not enough, then you can get a part time job.. delivering pizzas, tossing boxes at UPS...
It's all about make more, spend less...

Dodge,
Your overtime is getting taxed at a higher amount. Increase the amount of your deductions until you get your bills paid. Once this is done, set it back where it should be.
Talk to your HR or payroll manager at work to do this.

get a job that pays in tips over the weekend and late at night - like waiter, card dealer, stripper, bartender etc.
take out a personal loan from your bank and use it to pay back the bills now and then you will just have a monthly payment for the loan
try www.prosper.com for a loan from people
