I am not a pediatrician, but most blood infections are treated with intravenous antibiotics.

I am not an infectious disease specialist and without knowing what kind of infection it is, it is difficult to say, but I imagine most bacterial infections would be treated with oral or intravenous antibiotics.

Yes, it is serious. Hospital admission for IV antibiotics.
