Losing my job in Chicago Area

Well, I have found myself in a tough spot. My wife and I just relocated to the chicago area, bought a house, and were settling in and I found out that the owners of the plane I am flying will not be keeping the plane as originally planned, so after a short 4 months I most likely will be out of a job in 1 month. I am in desperate need for an opportunity in the area, or one that I can commute out of Chicago for. I am already applying to wheels up, netjets, and will be considering regionals if there aren't any other opportunities and may present themselves. About myself, I currently have about 3500 hours, BE1900, and BE350 single pilot types, with about 2000 hours flying 135 cargo, and about 100 hours flying a combination of Part 91 owner trips and Part 135 charter flights. If anyone has any leads on anything I would be incredibly appreciative, I just found out about this a couple hours ago so I will be putting in my own legwork, thanks in advance!

Planemasters at DPA has a few 350s. May be a place for some contract flying

If you can't do something smart, do something right
 
Dumont out of Wilmington de is in need of pilots. I came in without a type to captain. Schedule is 12/10 or 12/8 pending type. Home based.
 
Priester Aviation is hiring into several types for the PWK/Chicago Executive Airport location. I ran into a couple of their pilots with my previous 135 pax gig, and they seemed fairly happy with the operation.

Check out Castle Air out of CAK. I just spoke to one of their senior pilots and he said they are basing a 208 out of PWK for cargo runs. Looks like a lot of stuff down to SUS and back to CAK.
