30 mgs of methadone is not a lot...have u thought about just tapering off of that?  If you switch to  a new and stronger narcotic, you will eventually have to get off that as well.
If you get on sub, it will cost, as I guess u know since u have tried suboxone.  Why not use the doctor you got the suboxone from?  A doctor who prescribes one, will prescribe the other if he/she thinks it will work for you.  There are few differences between the 2 so if one did not work, I am not sure the other would
When you say it did not work, that do you mean?
