I need some help guys like urgently

Well long story short
my neighbor came over and touched my air cleaner
then i remembered i needed to check where i had a air leak
once i took off my air cleaner i saw
gas dripping from the gas line(truck on) to carb inlet
I turned the truck off
and took it off
replace the filter that was in the carb
put some Teflon tape on the treads and put it back on
Well it still was leaking bad
took it off and looked in the carb to look at the treads
and saw that they were stripped
its a rochester 4bbl
what can i do to fix this
i don't really have money to buy a new carb
i found out my carb was leaking like a hour ago
What can i do guys?
can i just use a tap and dye set and tap the treads again
or should i get some of that jb weld and use that???
I hate that everything always happens at the last minute
and i work tomorrow at 7
