Any sleep experts out there?

I feel like I spend most of my day getting my LO to sleep. I have realized that I have a fussy baby if he stays awake for over 75-90 minutes. His first nap on the day I can almost get him to fall asleep on his own which is awesome, but sleeping gets harder as the day goes on. If I miss the window of opportunity to get him down, he gets overtired and wired, for instance, the other night he was up for 5 hours straight! My main question is, what should I do when I put my LO down for a nap and he is up 5 minutes later? How many times should I keep trying to get him to stay asleep? This happens a lot during his 3 or 4th nap of the day. Also, any tips for bedtime? I have tried massage and a bedtime routine, but LO starts to get fussier and fussier and it usually takes an hour to get him to fall asleep. TIA!
