Was told a while back that my headlight(s) had a short. However, when I had them replaced today the bulbs worked. A few hours later, my car had NO power at all, and there was a loud ticking coming from the back fuse box. When said fuse was removed, still no power and ticking started in front fuse box.

That is what I went to the repair shop for, I told them there was a short, but they replaced the bulbs and said that is all it needed. My car is completely dead, is there anything I can do to at least get it running to drive to another shop so I don't have to get it towed?

Have the battery charged up. You may have to remove it if you dont have a charger and take it to a parts store.
