I'd go with the Epsom Salt treatment first, there is no harm using it. If in fact it's yeast, antibiotics would be counter productive, possibly worsening the situation.

That is a good question. I don't see why you couldn't try it. I'd say go for it and see if it helps, but Dawg53 will have a better idea of whether it will work or not.
