You could use something like

\version "2.19.65"
\language "english"

\relative c {
  \clef "treble_8"
  \time 3/8
  \key a \major
  { \set fingeringOrientations = #'(left) <bs,-4 ds-2 gs-\tweak X-offset -3.5 
-3> <bs-4 ds-2 gs-3>4 }
}

It's not particularly great, I'll readily admit.  But at least you can
do something.
