Bent down while taking shower picking up rag and when lifted scrapped my lower back on the faucet drawing blood. i immediately used a alcohol pad and triple antibiotic on, but was curious if that was enough and what bacteria may be present?

Put bandaid on it and it should heal in a few days. If you see redness around the injured area, the site is painful, there is pus at the site or you get fever, see a doctor.
