Very rarely have I seen a dog get sick from the intranasal bordetella vaccine. If he is vomiting and/or having diarrhea then it is likely the simplecef that is causing this. I would make sure he is eating a full meal before giving him the antibiotics. If he is still sick or having other symptoms, I would contact you vet to ensure the antibiotics or ear drops wouldn't cause those symptoms. He may just need a different antibiotics that he can better tolerate. I hope this helps.
