Are you 100% sure there are no trainers around you? They have trainers at petco and petsmart. They’re pretty easy to find nowadays!
Also, ask your vet to make sure there isn’t anything wrong that could be causing the problem. If there’s nothing physically wrong, he needs to be trained in a consistent, positive manner.
Neutering also makes a big difference if he isn’t already. It also makes them live longer.
They do sell dog diapers if something is wrong with him.
If you really, really can’t get a trainer, you need to get a book. Training dogs with problems isn’t something that can be summed up in a single paragraph.
Good luck!

you need to take a stand and show him who is the master and just rub his nose in it!!! do it consistently, every single time he did it bad. when he does his business in the right place, he’ll know cause he didn’t get in trouble. if you’re a little freaked out about rubbing his nose in it, then maybe a more indirect approach could be using that bitter apple spray or vinegar spray on his nose…. or swatting w/ a news paper maybe. yeah, up to you, lol. just don’t let your house go to ****! lol jk jk

First and foremost, realize he’s a TINY dog – his bladder CANNOT hold it for long periods of time.
A Chihuahua needs to go out to potty frequently.
Try the crate training again, only FEED HIM in his crate.
Make sure the crate isn’t too BIG, needs to be big enough to stand up, and turn around, but not big enough for him to pee or poop in it.
