Suggest Treatment For Sinus Infection And Tooth Pain

I have a sinus infection and the pain in my upper teeth is increasing. OTC decongestants have been effective, but the pressure is unbearable at night. I have neutropenia and recently my WBC was 1.5. Should I get an antibiotic? I have had acute sinus infections for the last few years in the spring that caused a high fever, and I had to take a week off work. I am functioning now but don t want this to progress to that level.
