Cat paws infected, peeling. No known injury. Manually pulled puss out. Tried to soak in epson salt, she didn't cooperate. What can I do besides take to vet?

You can try disinfection with different solution like hibiscrub or betadine ones. Unfortunately antibiotics seems to be needed, so I would recommend an immediate check up if disinfection is not working as infection could be a major risk. A picture of the lesion could help to determine underlying cause more specifically.
