OP, Why haven't you filed an application with the Attorney General's Office to modify your child support ?
It's slow, but it's FREE (and they know how much he earns).
You have to prove there has been a material change in the financial situation of Dad or Mom, or the needs of the children have changed (not a hard hurdle if you work at substantiation this with actual figures), since the last c/s order.
The court usually looks at three years for a modification (that's just a presumption which can be overcome by proof of need) and whatever period, it has to be 20% or $100 difference from the current c/s (not hard in your case).
Google oag.gov or 'Office of the Attorney General'. You can apply online, or there is a listing of offices for your personal application.
File for the c/s. If he fights visitation (possession & access) later, the OAG should attend and may be helpful to you (they are great at putting a wage assignment in place very quickly, and employers know to honor those WAs).
