my Rx (I hope your all laughing) in order of importance:

1. go to the vet and let them asses the right antibiotic and use as directed
2. cool side, no lower than 85 even at night until the snake is well. warm side like Tracy said 90. you can have a slightly hotter hot spot but no more than 95 ever.
3. Humidity spiking to 60% three times a day from spraying. Don't spray so much it runs down the glass.

always:

1. thermometers on both sides, right? Do you have that or a temp gun? You need two thermometers and a humidity meter.
2. have a gradient.
3. never have a boa by the window
4. always cover up a screen top or all your heat and humidity will just go out the top

Good luck,
Caden
