Impetigo

My 14 months old son was diagnosed with Impetigo today. He had a few days old scratch on his thigh and 2 days ago he developed water filled blisters on and around the scratch. Some of the blisters burst and a clear liquid sipped out. Today in the morning I discovered some more blisters on his lower arm just above the wrist. The skin on the affected spots looks red and inflamed. So we went to see a doctor who diagnosed Impetigo. The boy doesn't show any other symptoms yet. As I avoid allopathic medication for the last 15 years I checked with my homeopathic guide books but couldn't find a hint for Impetigo. Can somebody advice a treatment, please? Thanks
