File for contested divorce, use Service of Process by Publication statute. This is complicated and you will probably need an attorney. also takes longer, around six months.

You file papers here. Have him served in Mexico. He can decide if he wants to come here or not. You do not need him to sign papers to get a divorce.

You have to divorce and part of the time that you can legitimately get our marriage license or remarry. Then should be possible.

He doesn't need to come to the US for you to get divorced. You need to file and have him served at his last known address (that can be in Mexico) or if you have no address, by getting the court's permission to serve by publication. When you have a divorce decree you can get married again.
