If he is addicted, he is not going to be able to dabble with pain meds.
I also know that spending is a sign of mania. I don't know if this spending is unusual for him. Also, addicts might have multiple addictions, like a spending addiction!
So there is no way for me to offer an informed opinion.

I do love him, however, if he is not willing to work a recovery program, isn't ok for me to say that I will not pay for or clean up after him?

If I were you, I wouldn't hold myself responsible for paying and cleaning up after him. Of course, I'm not in a situation like that. My partner's bipolar is controlled by meds.
If I was in your situation, I'd do everything I could to get him to go to therapy. Which I suspect you are doing. Sigh.
I wish I had some good advice for you, but it sounds like you are doing all you can. Now....... you need to take care of you! Taking care of yourself is the only thing you can do.
