Need Help with Frog

Whats up guys. Went for a swim in the pool after my workout and was checking the filters for frogs. A few dead ones and I noticed one looked like it was moving (being thrashed around in under water I doubted it) so I pulled out the basket and thought it was dead. After a minute in my hand it kinda 'woke up'

Another few minutes and it was clinging onto my head, exhausted and bloated I guess you could say. Anyways, I took it home, gave it a bath in poland springs water at room temp (to try to rinse off chlorine or whatever, I know nothing about frogs).

I put him in a extra rubbermaid with holes, damp paper towel and the thermometer is staying at about 79 degrees. Theres also a petri dish of poland springs water in there. So basically, what am I doing wrong and what else should I do to give him a decent chance...

Not sure what type of frog he is, but he has red on the bottom of his legs that the other one I posted a while back didn't have.

Oh, and after I gave him a bath and warmed him up a bit (my pool is freezing), he started leaping and actually moving...so thats a good sign I think...lol

Here are pics:
