Please help.

I posted a thread earlier about my sons toad... I'm desperate. He looks terrible and is probably suffering and I dont know what to do. I've called several pet stores as well as vets and there are none within my driving range that can help. The only bit of advice I have got was to remove everything from his tank and put in moist paper towels. It is an american toad that we rescued from our back yard. We have had him around a year now. Last year he didn't hibernate and this year he buried himself around 2 months ago and come out two days ago. His eyes are seeping and have what looks like a yellow pink slime on them. I tried a warm soak and gently tried to wipe some of the goo off around his eyes without stressing him to much. This is the first toad I have ever tried to care for and can't find anyone to help. I fear he has some kind of infection in his eyes and it seems to be getting worse. I am at a loss as to how to help him. Some articles I have found say to use neosporin. But have not found anything specific for the american toad. The man I spoke with from a local pet store said not to use anything but water due to the toad soaking things thru the skin. Please!! Someone help!
