Have you tried a new gasket?

No, haven’t gotten a chance to

I'd try to put a new garden hose washer in the fitting you already have.

Teflon tape is the go to for sealing leaks on threaded hose fittings. It should be available at any hardware store. Look up a video on how to apply it, pretty simple, pretty cheap. If that doesn't work, get back to us.

Teflon tape is only used on tapered threads. Garden hose threads are parallel, and seal at a gasket. Don't use teflon tape on garden hose threads.

I decided to just try teflon tape like around 2 months ago, it worked perfectly and there is a very little drop every 10 seconds sometimes but usually no leaks which is perfect for me. Thanks for the help though.
