Abscess Below Eyebrow. Taking Antibiotics, Putting Hot Compresses To Drain Abscess, Not Helping. Medical Cure For This?

I have had an absess just below my right eyebrow since late August. Have had one round of antibiotics early on, didn't do any good. Had the absess drained, but now there is still a bump below the original bump and it is very stubborn and doesn't seem to every really get smaller. I have put hot compresses on it at least 3 times a day which help more pus to drain, but it stays relatively the same size. This has been going on for over two months. What should i do?
