It isn't worth putting any money into it. If you want to keep riding it just do bare minimum essentials like lubing the chain, buying tubes and maybe cheap tires, and brake pads. If you have problems you can fix for free go for it beyond that just send it to the scrapyard.
Save your money for something nicer or for upgrades to your other bikes. You can get reasonably cheap fixed gears at a lot of bike shops these days which are crap but many times better than Wally Mart bikes. The shop I work at is selling a neat little folding SS bike for a little over $300 which is not bad.
