Fawn with hair loss and coughing

This morning we had given my 2 week old fawn a shot of LA 300 for coughing. He would only cough every once in a while, but I don't want to wait to long. He got the shot in his back leg which is really seeming to bother him. Today where he got the shot yellowish stuff was coming out of it. Is this something to worry about. Also I realized today he was losing his fur. If you pull on his fur a bunch comes out. He is eating fine, pees fine, and his poop isnt quite pellets yet but getting there. He doesnt do much during the day but lay around. We walk around the deer pens where the other deer stay in the morning sometimes. Also during the night we run throught the pine trees we have on the farm. He likes to eat grass too.
 
I am not familiar with LA 300, but I do know that LA 200 is too hot for fawns.



Also, LA 200, is yellowish in color, so it may be leaking back through the injection site.
