Well I didn't know that sea salt could be used but if you go to a tatoo shop, or hot topic they sell something called H2Ocean and it helps to prevent infections :)
Sea Salt will not treat an infection, it has no antibacterial qualities and if mixed too strong will infact become caustic. Washing the piercing with antibacterial liquid soap diluted and lathered worked in to the piercing and flushed out with warm running water is the quickest way to clean out and infected piercing.

Where can you buy ear piercing cleanser?
There is a store called claire's . It's all the malls around my area, any piercing or tattoo shop, walmart too. You can also make your own - add half a teaspoon of sea salt to boiling water, allow to cool to the point where it feels warm rather than hot. This is called a sea salt soak and is recommended by most piercers. EDIT: Claires soultion is alcohol based and terrible for piercings. You could also buy saline wound wash ( make sure its only sea salt and water...)
