See an ENT: You need an evaluation by an Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist. They will be able to diagnose what is going on and determine what is the best course of treatment. If this is truly a fungal infection than antibiotics will not help. They are only for bacterial infections.

See an ENT: for evaluation and final diagnosis. Sporanox (itraconazole) or Amphotericin B can be used either as oral agents or topically applications.
