Good day all, is there anyone that can give me a hand rebroadcasting a tx that is currently stuck? 

I sent it from a cold paper wallet that I had printed off sometime ago and used Mycelium's cold storage spend option on my android device.  We weren't in a big hurry for it to clear so we used the recommended "economy" fee.  Well this was right before there was an explosion in transactions and now the fee I used is showing that it will take "inf" (which I think means infinity) on the bitcoinfees website.

Now I still have the paper wallet with the private key, and as far as I know I just need to rebroadcast the tx with a higher fee and it should get picked up and the other rejected.  But I can't find a client that will allow me to do this as it shows the funds are currently spent. 

Can anyone give me a hand? Whats the best way to get this done?  I found a bitcoin tx booster site, but they want like 60$US to do it, which is around 3 to 5  times what the tx fee should cost for me to send it and have it mined in a day or less, so I don't really want to pay for that service which seems to be charging way more than should be.  That and I'm not entirely sure its legit either.

Accelerators can charge what they want. Question is whether someone is going to use them.

Have you tried http://confirmtx.com/ or https://viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/ ?
Alternatively in service section are some users offering free acceleration as well.

Does mycelium offer you the option "replace by fee"? That would solve the problem. Otherwise I afraid you have to use bitcoin client, download entire blockchain and use console to rebroadcast tx.

confirmTX scam... stop posting his url site!

Now I still have the paper wallet with the private key, and as far as I know I just need to rebroadcast the tx with a higher fee and it should get picked up and the other rejected.  But I can't find a client that will allow me to do this as it shows the funds are currently spent. 
have you checked/tried coinb.in? javascript web tool for composing, signing and broadcasting tx
you can download the source from github and run it offline,
but you still need to be online when retrieving utxo inputs and brodcasting the tx Wink

I actually did come across that site in my searches, but it tells me the input or output is invalid, probably because it shows as already sent on the blockchain.
