Hurt possum

Amputated opossum

I have a possum that I caught in a trap on accident when I was trying to get a raccoon that was killing my chickens it's arm was snapped and I I'm trying to nurse it back to hell so we had to amputate the arm and now the arm is starting to get infected and the bone is protruding I do not have the money to get it to a vet or a hospital I am giving it antibiotics 22 mg of amoxicillin it weighs 1.2 kg however it's chewing on its arm and I can't get any bandages to stay on it I'm having the bathe the thing everyday cuz it's current crate it's in is kind of small and it's in its own s\*\*\* and I'm trying to fight infection I'm not sure what to do any advice I called rehabilitation places and they told me that they were going to kill it if I try to bring it to them
