Question B/P sick

A month-and-a-half ago we got our second grader a ball python. He has really enjoyed taking care of it. The first 3 times we fed the snake a mouse, he did fine. Then he stopped eating. He shed his skin about 1.5 weeks ago and hasn't eaten for about 2 weeks now. He has had a sort of black, leaky fluid on his skin. Last night we sprayed him with a vitamin spray and I put some food down him with a syringe (all stuff the pet store recommended). This morning he was oozing the black fluid out of the skin on his head. We are afraid that he is going to die on us, but don't know what is wrong with him. What should we do?
