It sounds as though Booboo may have an abscess that is simply not resolving. Abscesses typically require antibiotics for resolution and some also require surgical draining and flushing. At this point, your best bet is to take her to the vet for an exam and to determine if surgery is indicated or if antibiotics alone will be sufficient. I hope that she is on the mend soon!
