This is a problem that basically doesn't have a solution.
In a perfect world, the decree would have ordered your ex-husband to refinance (and he would have done so).
Your only remedy is to write letters to the credit bureaus (write PAPER letters, and lick stamps) explaining what happened, and hope that they will insert a special message on your credit report.
