Avoid colds: Do your best to keep him away from sick kids. Most ear infections are caused by colds. April 4th isn't too far from now, and it wouldn't be that unusual to keep him on another course of Augmentin (amoxicillin and clavulanate) 600mg/5ml at 90mg per kg until then, or omnicef. Call your surgeon.
