By all means, this should be treated by a veterinarian. Home treatments could cause undo suffering in your dog when time is of the essence when treating this infection. Bladder infections can also cause death in a very short time if left untreated. Home remedies may not be as reliable as a veterinarian's medicine. Antibiotics are in order.

There are no good home treatments for unprofessionally-diagnosed conditions. You are only 'pretty sure' your dog has a bladder infection, but it could be many other things. Take your dog to a vet now, if you really care about it. If not, adopt it out to someone who will.
