She will need more medication. Sometimes these infections need a course of antibiotics for a longer period than is normally prescribed. It's also possible that she needs a different antibiotic. The best thing to do is have your vet recheck Lola as soon as possible, so they can evaluate her and advise on the best course of action. I hope that helps and Lola gets better soon.
