Itraconazole is usually the best route since you may be dealing with internal fungus as well as external fungus. The important thing to do is to start treating it asap. for fungus, ive taken cotton swabs and "painted" the infected areas on the skin with betadine. If you want to bathe them, try using a diluted nolvasan solution, although it i believe the betadine painting method works better. Either way you need to take them to the vet to the meds so see what they say as well with this kind of situation. They may want to biopsy it too to confirm that it actually is yellow fungus. Fungus is something that is still difficult to treat in reptiles, though every year they seem to be uncovering more and more info about the different types and how to treat them.
