 Has your ex-boyfriend said anything about getting back together, or just offering a place to stay. He may care for you and want to help without having sexual intentions.
I allowed my exwife to stay with me for 1 month, while she started a new job, we were roomies, no sex with her, and no re-starting a relationship.
I would say to accept his offer. you need the help now, and so do your children.

 Normally I would say you should NEVER jump straight into another relationship. However as you refer to him as your boyfriend it seems you've already done that. So, why not accept his hospitality. It would take away some of the stress and financial worries, but make sure he knows it's a temporary arrangement and it doesn't mean you're there for good.
