In regard to water making it worse, bacteria such as Aeromonas hydrophila are almost always present in the water and if you do determine you want to use an antibiotic, the water might be a good way to administer it (I've never treated an amphibian infection though). Many bacterial infections are caused by opportunistic bacteria that are exploiting a weakness in the animal's immune system from some other source. So a healthy animal will rarely succumb to infection by the presence of bacteria alone.
