    I can't say for sure, but if I had to guess one or the other I'd guess chytrid and pretty advanced.

    Please note I'm not an expert but if it's in this state, there may be a low likelihood of survival. Are you sure it's caused by infection and not wounds that got infected?

    Edit: someone else said it looked bacterial, so they might know better.

    I'm sorry you couldn't get better help.

    You might want to change the water more frequently to make sure there isn't much bacteria growth. I'd suggest sterilizing the entire tank but it may be too late for that.

    I'm sorry about your frog.
