The antibiotic of choice for cat scratch fever is Azithromax or zithromax and is available in a liquid form for cats and capsules or tablets for dogs.  Bartonellosis (cat scratch fever) occurs rarely in dogs but it would not hurt to treat him also.  The vet can prescribe these medications.  Your cats and dog must be treated for one month.
