Hi LARRY,
Sorry poor baby.
I want to try to help
This is what it looks like to me:
It is most definitely broken skin.
They look like little fluid filled pustules. ( like blisters)
The spot in the upper L - looks like it erupted.
The one in the lower right - may still break open?
Did you 'drop' on the levacol?
If so, is this where you put it?

I would pull this one - into a hospital tank/ boil leaf litter for a real long time/give him plenty of cover/ on wet paper towel substrate ( de-chlor water)
I would get plenty of clean de-chlor water on that area several times a day. ( use a boiled glass dropper bottle to apply the water- pharmacy) Keep his little hospital/enclosure as clean as possible !

It needs some kind of topical antibiotic. SSD ? (Silversulfadiazene is a topical antibiotic and antifungal ) The extra *fluid (dropper bottle) will help him eliminate the remnants of the levacol form his bitty little body.
* RE -the fluid to bathe the spots- A vet may recommend (besides medication) a specific fluid /rinse for this. Until you get a vets help, I would keep it simple! ie Boil water then de-chlor it . ( Careful not to OVER de-chlor)

Why don't you try emailing Dr Frye- He can't treat the frog. He is very caring - and may have the time to get back to you? Can't hurt to try? Dr Frye will need that photo included in the email and information about the levecol ( dose strength) and how it was administered.

Do you have a herp vet?

Could you be kind enough to let be know what transpires moving forward?
