My dog has A mass on her head just below the ear, I was told to give her antibiotics which I have been getting from the feed store, well last night I noticed a patch of raw skin so I figured she was scratching, today when I got home the porch is now a 3*3 inch patch of raw skin that is leaving blood and a pus looking substance.I can’t afford a vet

Thanks for using PetCoach! Missy's mass could potentially be a benign or malignant growth. If she is scratching at it is because she is likely bothered by it in which case removal would be warranted depending on what tumor type this is. Also, that ulcerated area is now probably infected and would require antibiotic therapy which you can only get from a veterinarian. You can check with your local humane society as often times they offer less expensive veterinary care. You can consider using an e-collar which you can get from your local pet store or online to prevent further self-trauma from scratching. Good luck!
