Can someone let me know where I might find a score with the fingering for this piece?

At this level I think you would (unfortunately) have to decide all the fingerings for yourself....
But think on the bright side - even if there were fingerings they might not be the most suitable/comfortable for your hand size anyways!

Yeah - sadly enough, if you need a copy with fingering, I feel you are inadequately prepared to even THINK of tackling this piece. I myself would love to start learning Rachmaninoff's 3rd Piano Concerto, but I know I'm not ready yet... given the technical monstrosity of it, but I know that I'd be able to work out the fingering and I'd be glad to do it.
When I got my copy of Stravinsky's Trois mouvements de Petrouchka, There was pretty much no fingering in it. And it was my task, and my duty as a pianist, to work it out by myself. It was arduous, no doubt - but you need to be capable of doing that if you are tackle these pieces and grow as a piano player.

it just so happens the score for this piece from Music Minus One has finger notations in it in certain places. However, the score isn't littered with finger suggestions. they are only in certain places. I only know this because I had the dumb idea of buying this work from them thinking I might be able to do something with it. I, however, was thinking without the proper equipment.

You should always work out your own fingering. Especially if you have Henle editions, which everyone goes crazy about these days. Fingering should just be a natural fit and not a chore.
