I need help really fast. I already own one beardie who is just over a year old and her name is mustard. I just got a new beardie yesterday (ketchup) who couldn't be more than 6 weeks old at the most. I was doing that thing where I took him over to the dogs and let them smell him etc to make them calmer about the new pet in the house and for some reason my dumbass thought of mustard like one of the dogs because she has always been so docile, so I sat the two together - not too close because i knew there was some level of danger involved - but in less than a second, ketchup moved his head and mustard lunged at him biting down on his head. I got her off him almost immediately but the damage was done and I am lost as for what to do.
I flung ketchup away from mustard and immediately put her back in her enclosure and turned my attention to ketchup. He was spinning to the left pretty bad, he started bleeding from the mouth but only about a drop's worth in total, his eye was swollen and not opening and he refused to open the other one. And of course it had to happen at the same time as one of the the biggest recorded floods in my area so i could only make it to a local vet who doesn't specialise in reptiles of any kind. We took him in there and he was pretty unresponsive until provoked e.g touching his eye or head, in which case he would fling his head out of the way and do more left-wards circles.
All the vet could do was examine him and give him a TINY dose of antibiotics as he is still so small. I have him sitting in his enclosure and I am constantly monitoring him trying to give him water and a blend of crickets, celery greens, carrots, spinach and grapes mixed together with some water smoothie style. His whole body now won't move very much which I'm not sure if that's because of the pain or just because he can't but I'm very worried and as I cant get him to a qualified herp vet I have no idea what to do from here. He only moves his head when prompted by the syringe and he is keeping his mouth agape. The only thing that he is really moving by himself is his tongue.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!

. sometimes we get curious and see what happens. I left my bearded dragon alone on my bed and she's only a baby and she jumped down and my bed is like 3 feet high and she jumped down. She got stunned a little but then she was fine. I was desperate. I din't know what to do. I'm so sorry about Ketchup. Pets come and go and he went so soon.:_(
