Give me a few mins to work this up and check your private messaging for dosage...

It is often recommended to split the dosing to every 12 hours but since this is such
a small dose it's not too feasible however, I would use the first as a loading dose and dose
again in 12 hours then go from there to once every 24hrs. Duration 5-7 days.
It is recommended to give a probiotc 2 hours before or 2 hours after administering ab's.
You can use the yogurt, it doesn't have to be much.

I noticed on your registration you are a first time care giver so I'm attaching a link to baby squirrel care.
Palm squirrels are a little different but I believe the instructions are fairly universal.
Go to below link it can be a HUGE help. It's 6 pages long with the next button on the top right corner.
