Looking for a real antibiotic I could administer in bath form, here is what I was able to find online (without having to get a vet prescription). Is there a particular antibiotic/method you recommend for use @Jay Hemdal ?

Amoxicillin is best used as an oral med, or injectable. Orally, the dose is 60 mg/kg of body weight daily for 10 days.
I don't have Cephalexin in any of my formularies.
Ciprofloxacin is a quinolone. I normally use Enrofloxacin at 5 mg/l daily for 5 days, with water changes each day.
