Find something to put in there that will hold the flap open. Coat hanger wire, stick, small piece of tubing..... Just don't drop it on where you cant get it back out.
New gas cans suck, you pretty much have to have a syphon hose or a funnel to be able to put gas in a car with them.

Sometimes and ink pin will work, don't drop it in the tank.

Look behind the passenger side back seat, should be a plastic funnel that came with truck just for that purpose
ETA, now that I think of it, it is actually behind the driver side back seat

Call your husband. 
J/k I found out the hard way that every gas can needs a funnel. The funnel opens and holds open the metal fuel door down in the vehicle.

I've used a screw driver for this pain in the arse problem.

The newest gas cans suck. Now there's this weird slide thing you have to hold down or the plastic gas can won't work.
My vehicle was stolen, recovered with zero gas, and I had to get it to the body shop. Of course those idiots left me with no gas, so I had to buy a gas can and fill it up. I got gas all over me, and maybe 3/4 of it in the tank.
I was beyond pissed at my situation.

If its a Tahoe or Suburban and probably others you will be real pissed when you realize you have to put about 10 gallons in it to prime it back up to start after running out.
