Good luck finding somebody. Even a taxidermist may not accept this challenge, and when they do they will probably charge a lot. You can buy bullfrog skeletons from Carolina Biological. You might want to consider gluing the skeleton together yourself.

It's not that hard to make it yourself. You just have to boil the frog and take off the rest of the skin. The bones are still in tact. I'm sure there are more instructions on the net, good luck.
