Have you read the EVMS COVID-19 MANAGEMENT PROTOCOL: An overview of the MATH+ and I-MASK+ Protocols?

It sounds like you and your family are entering the Early Pulmonary Phase where you must get a steroid (methylprednisolone), a blood thinner (enoxaparin), higher Ivermectin dosage, possibly IV Vitamin C, and a monoclonal antibody treatment. See Figure 1 below:
It is really important to know if you have declining blood oxygen. Immediately get a Pulse Oximeter ASAP and start tracking your blood oxygen saturation. I've been using a Wellue O2Ring for the past 15 months (mainly to track my sleep apnea). It records your blood oxygen concentration during sleep and loads the data to your phone. If you can't afford that device, get a pulse oximeter at your drug store and record your readings by hand.

Dr. George Fareed is one of the 51 co-authors. You can call Dr. Fareed and he WILL call you back. He will write prescriptions for you based on a tele-consultation. He is one of the few doctors who believes that a combination of HCQ and IVM is most effective. I think I had to call a few numbers to track him down, but start with the El Centro Outpatient Clinic, 385 W Main St, El Centro, CA, (760) 482-5000. You can Google him to find other clinics where he practices.
Dr. Fareed will recommend C19 mAbs (monoclonal antibodies) infusion from an ER/hospital or infusion center (once no later than 7 days after symptoms began). Look into Regeneron's REGEN-COV (casirivimab and imdevimab), a cocktail of two monoclonal antibodies (also known as REGN10933 and REGN10987) that was designed specifically to block infectivity of SARS-CoV-2.

Read the Dr George Fareed and Dr Brian Tyson Early Treatment Protocol, May 18, 2021 to understand the protocol he will recommend.
I tell you, I am shocked and appalled at what your doctor told you (but not surprised). Close to a year ago I asked my own GP his opinion of the prophylaxis protocols. He replied "Just follow what CDC says." Ridiculous.
Be sure to call Dr. Fareed first thing tomorrow.
