Hello dear
I understand your concern
Bartholin's gland is due to blockage of the duct and cause accumulation of the mucus inside it produce cyst.

Consult the gynecologist for proper management.
Take cefixime for 7 days
Tablet ibuprufen
Warm pad application
Once infection has been gone it should be removed by surgery as you have recurrent development of the cyst.
Bartholin cyst and gland should be removed permanently by surgical process.
Cost depend on the experience of the gynecologist and it is variable.
Hope this may help you
