How to get my spouse to the US?

I am a DV 2007 Lottery winner and I received my permanent residence (visa stamping on my passport) on January 8, 2007. After my first application for the DV in 2005 but before I got the approval via second letter in November 2006, I got married (in October, 2006) in Nepal. Since the US Embassy in Nepal had issued a bulletin at that time stating that if a spouse's name was not included in the very first application for the DV, they would disqualify the applicant if the spouse was included in subsequent applications and/or visa interview. For that reason I did not mention a change in my marital status. Our marriage was registered with the Nepalese government recently. How do I file for my husband to join me here in the US at the earliest? Will he be elligible for following -to-join benefits? What options do I have that will allow him to come to the US as soon as possible. Your suggestions will be highly appreciated
