Call your  local lender. Ask for referrals from friends If you don't have one that you currently work with.  They will pull your credit report and work with you on repairing so that you can be in a position to buy again.  

Good Luck!

It will depend on a few factors. How many months payments you were behind when the home sold. If you filed a bankruptcy after the short sale and what how strong the rest of your credit report is.

It depends.  Have you had any late payments on the mortgage for the house that was sold short?
