torn axle boot 200 miles from home? w116

I'm visiting my wife's family in Las Vegas, 200 miles from home. I just discovered a torn inner axle boot on my w116 300sd. The boot is leaking gear oil? My wifes cousin has no tools.

Can I make it home?

Any shop recomendations in Las Vegas?
I usually do all my own repair work and if I need to just replace the axle, can I risk driving it home or will I be stranded in the desert?
