Exclamation I really need some help on this one? PLEASE!!

About six weeks ago I took my anerytheristic boa to my vet and he gave it some injection and a pain killer. He told me it needed it every day for seven days. By the end of the day he seemed more active, but on the third day he wouldn't move around, he was lifeless. And within a couple hours he started to i guess "seizure" and within 10 minutes he was dead. The vet tells me to go after the breeder for selling me a bad snake. I didn't but on saturday I took my salmon boa to the same vet because I was told by a friend the he had an inflamed lung and get him baytril. When i got to the vet i told him that and he looked at my snake and said yep. He gave him a injection and a painkiller. I took him home ad he was fine. I went to pick my husband up from work and when we got home he was dead. This all took place within two hours after leaving the vet. The salmon was also all twisted and had latched a tooth in the side of him. Does anybody know what could have possibly happened?

I took the salmon boa to the Uiversity of Guelph for a post mortem this morning, they told me it would take a couple of days for results. but they said that it is hard sometimes to check for certain drugs in snakes.

Can somebody please tell me what's going on cause all i know is that i'm pretty pissed off?????????????? :medstrung :medmashed :medbugged :dumb:
