You should hire an attorney who practices in the area of family law in or near the county where you live to file a divorce action.  Unless your case is unusually complicated, you should be able to find an attorney who is willing to accept your case for an initial retainer of $5,000-10,000 depending upon your particular facts and circumstances.  That attorney may be able to secure child support for you as well as reimbursement for attorney fees if you lack control of sufficient community funds to pay your attorney and have to borrow or charge the retainer on a credit card if your wife does have control of community funds.

Texas is not a alimony state.  Texas has spousel maintainece under certain situations; ie been married for more than 10 years; spouse suffering from a disabiliy; married for more than 10 years and spouse lacks the ability to be self sufficient.   In Texas, when a divorce is filed the spouse does not have to leave the marital home.  You might be able to obtain a "kick out" order under certain circumstances.

If I am given a debt in a divorce and it is from a repo of my wife’s, does it affect my credit?

No. The only time a debt will affect your credit is if it is listed under your social security number. Otherwise the debt will be reported under the SSN that was originally on the loan paperwork.
