If it is septicemia, a sample would have to be be cultured [in a hospital, clinic etc.] to determine with accuracy the micro-organism diagnosis.  I.V. administration of antibiotics would then be set up. Hopefully the medics would have things under control ASAP. However; Question? How would you know the diagnosis was septicemia without lab work and doctors involved? Septicemia is not like catching a cold. I can assure you.
