I think the problem here is that solfetch isn't really designed for something as chromatic as the PacMan theme sing. In other words, the song starts with a chromatic pattern then moves up a half step with the same basic pattern, then back down and then sort of grace-notes up a partial scale. I don't know how you would transcribe that to solfetch.

I'd try transcribing it to staff and then see if it can be cheated to solfetch ... I'm at work right now though ...

First: it is spelled either solfège or solfeggio. Also, this page has details on how to include the accidentals.

I hated solfeggio, so that's as much help as I'm going to provide.
