You really need really good legal advice, big time because you may or may not be able to accomplish what you want timely. I'm a certified specialist for close to 30 years and if some thing can help your new spouse, I can do it, but you very much need advice.
Feel free to contact me directly.

You need to apply for him. You will need list of documents to apply for the spousal application. Contact me if you need help.
Re: Got married outside the U.S
You can file an immediate relative petition on behalf of your husband (Form I-130) and then you can do two things: 1) Wait until the priority date (waiting period) becomes current so he can come to the U.S. (It may take a few years); or 2) become a U.S. Citizen and then you don't have to wait for the priority date and your husband can come to the U.S. as soon as you become a U.S. Citizen.
