Hi Gavin

You may need to get a feeding tube for him or put the formula on a wash cloth and let him suck that.  

Most pups that young are feeding off their dam 24 hours a day.  How often are you feeding him.  Depending on how much he's getting, it should be at least every hour and a half.

Alternatively you can find a "wet nurse" for him.  A female that recently had pups that you could put him to.

Good luck
