The Walmart window plastic works well and if you don't have dozens of people crawling on it, will last as long as the house.I understand the tight quarters, but there are some things you should understand about vapor barriers; they don't have to be perfect, a gap here or there isn't bad; and some is better than none.With help, you can open up the floor, which it sounds like you've done some, cut the plastic into strips and pull them from one end to the other.
