We had a housefire and have reached out to the Red Cross and that helped for 5 days, but they couldn't help past that. We are going to be out of our house for another 3-4 weeks and are needing assistance on where to stay and what we can do for some temp housing.

After five days, it is taken for granted that you will have found a place to live, either rent, stay with family or friends. Several years ago I was a receptionist in a Red Cross Office and if I remember right, we only put people up in a motel for three nights. We never heard of anybody not having a place to live on a temporary basis after that period of time.
I would suggest you contact your local Department of Human Services office and ask about shelters to stay in until you can locate housing.
