Exclamation what to do about potential respiratory infection

My hamster has been making weird sounds for a while now (see my previous threads) but today he's taken a turn for the worse. His breathing sounds weird, he looks like he's struggling to breathe, he's sneezing, he's lethargic, and he's not eating properly. Here's is a video (it doesn't show the weird breathing sounds, but it shows his other symptoms). I would take him to the vet however I can't do that for another week as I am going on holiday tomorrow, and he's staying with my grandparents. I have a small amount of baytril, should I put some in his water? If so how much? Is there anything I can do to keep him comfortable for the week I'm away before I can take him to the vet?
