staph infection started in my nose and went up my face

I had which I believe now was a staph infection that came up in my nose and went up my face. First day I looked like someone beat my face. Black eye, swollen face and a nose that looked three times it's size. I immediately sent my husband to the pet store to buy some cow penicillin and took it for two days and it went completely away. So, Was this a staph infection?
