Store Setup for Bahamas company with fulfilment/sales in USA

Hi, I am planning to sell a new product online. The business is in the Bahamas (Bahamas IBC), but planning to fulfil (via 3PL) and sell product in the USA. What is the best way to setup my new store? Which payment processors are best for a Bahamas based business that can take credit cards for US persons? Do I setup my store as a USA location? If so, how do I do that if I do not have a US address or US LLC. Thanks!
