Timeframe/DA Child Support

I filed a Chp. 7 in 06/98 and I would like to know if I can file another Chp. 7 before 7 years. I became ill last year, my son was sent to stay with my daughter, she applied for welfare, the L.A. DA has since come after me for child support I work part-time, cannot pay. Wage garnishment dated,11/4/02. Please help, cannot pay.
