Due to the immobilizer, your best bet might be a locksmith. Some locksmiths can cut a replacement key and program the ECU. I don't know how hard it will be in Mexico. You may have to get it towed out of Mexico back to the states and then call a locksmith.

Take your VIN to a dealership (if there are any in Mexico)
I'm not sure how much the newer keys cost to replace, but when I did it, I needed my certification of ownership, and identification

I have lost my key and went to the Honda dealership. Using my VIN he could order a replacement key and then program my immobilizer to accept the new key (only takes 10').

I had a spare key so I could drive the car to the dealership. Cost for the new key was a bit over $200.
