Near the end of the film, before Helen rats out on Bobby, Helen goes back to Bobby's apartment after seeing her ex-lover Marco. In that scene, we see Bobby lying on a bed with a man sleeping next to him. Was Bobby also prostituting himself?

No. The guy in bed with him is the man who had been wearing a Gilligan hat earlier, the one who shot up the bearded man. They live in a communal type situation, so, they all share a bed.
