Taking Care of a Puppy With Parvo at Home

My son's 7 month old pup started puking up foamy liquid and it had a little grass in it yesterday. He had not wanted anything to eat or drink at all yesterday, then last night he got up and started playing with our older dog. I made him some Chicken Top Ramen noodles. At first all he wanted was the broth, then when we added a little dog food to it he ate almost all of it.

We thought he was getting better, but now he doesn't want anything and you can tell he is not feeling well. A few years ago my son's girlfriend had a pup that was really sick. When we took her in to the vet they said she had Parvo and didn't think she was going to make it. But they gave us a couple bags of water for IVs they told us to just make sure we gave her an IV every couple of hours plus they gave us some kind of pills to give her.

Does anybody know where I can buy the IV bags? What kind of medications is it that they give them? Is it an antibiotic? Please help, my husband is refusing to put out anymore money on dogs, because my son had told us he had done his shots months ago. Now we find out that he only gave one shot, not the two follow-up ones.
