Sorry for the delayed reply...

The bite was REALLY bad. Degloved her neck in fact. The skin was just a big old flap, but no muscle damage thank goodness.

Needless to say I flipped out and ended up bringing her to the emergency room at Tufts University up here in Massachusetts. I'm glad my wife was around, I kinda lost my head and wasn't sure what to do.
Tufts didn't even sew her up. They just cleaned the area and gave me a few meds to adminsiter. Baytril, an anti-inflammatory, and an anti-fungal anti bacterial ointment for the outside.

Believe it or not she's doing great now. There is new skin over the muscle (completely covered now), its a tender thin skin of course, and the old flaps have pretty much sloughed away.
Didn't have any inections or complications or anything. I guess my daily attentions were perfect.
