Bacitracin Zinc is an excellent antibiotic (it's actually a mix of polypeptide antibiotics) for topical infections caused by gram positive organisms - staph, strep, enterococcus, clostridium difficile, etc. It doesn't work well on gram negative bacteria ( eg: pseudomonas, e. coli, serratia, etc.) because it works to break down the cell wall surrounding gram positive bacteria (kind of like penicillins). Gram negative bacteria don't have that kind of external covering, and thus are not (usually) suseptable. Bacitracin is extremely nephrotoxic (kidneys), so it isn't used for internal infections (v. rarely given I.M. for pediatric staphylococcal pnumonia that won't respond to other antibiotics). Primary uses are for staph infections of the skin and eyes. There is a very low rate of bacterial resistance, even in MRSA strains, and it's not very likely to cause an allergic reaction. So, yes, the ointment should work v. well on a staph infection. For ocular staph infections, there are ophthalmic ointment formulations.
