Squirrels have been treated in the wild by lacing a nut with an anti- biotic.
I recently treated one of my wilds with clavamox that had a large abscess on her head,
once I started treating it broke/drained in 3 days.
Search around and see what kind of ab you can come up with, we can tell you if it can
be used and how to break down and dose.
