changing belt, need help, think I have a MAJOR problem

Tried changing my belt today. Got the top bolt loosened and tried loosening the bottom 14mm bolt but it would not budge. So I sprayed a little wd40 and waited, then tried again and stripped the bolt. then I got another 14mm socket that had less points on it and tried with it. Stripped even more. Now I got a pretty much rounded bolt.

what can I do aside from taking it to the dealer and them charging me $200 to replace the belt. (their quote a few weeks ago)
