Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

I have been living in Florida now for 6 months. I have a child support order through the state of indiana where i had previously been living. I moved here so that i could find work since i was unable to find a job for almost a year up in indiana. I called and notified the child support offices in indiana when i moved down to florida. I have a court date coming up in Jan. and when i called a woman told me that I have no choice but to return to Indiana for every single court date or they will put a warrant out for my arrest. Is there another option? I know my sister in law has a support order through florida and her ex husband goes to court in tennessee where he is a legal resident. I am currently still seeking employment with the help of a staffing agency and I dont have the money to afford a plane ticket or gas to drive up there. If i did, i would be able to pay my support order. Thank you.
