14 month got a Sugar Glider bite on finger (infected)?

She needs to go to the doctor, this is not something that you can handle at home, the bite is infected and needs treatment. Do you live in the USA? If so, and you meet the qualifications, you can get Medicaid for your child. You could also possibly take her to your local health department for treatment. Good Luck!
PS. Also stop using the hydrogen peroxide. It actually hinders the healing process. It is a debreding agent, meaning, it gets like dirt and stuff out of wounds.

Sugar glider bites usually aren’t bad, they tend to just hurt alot. I’ve never heard of one swelling with pus… How long ago was the bite? Has your baby shown any other signs of being allergic to your gliders? That’s the only thing that would make sense to me, that she’s allergic to them so she’s reacting more severely to it. If it’s been more than a day or two I’d say a doctor is needed.
