Did you go back to PetStupid to demand that they pay for the vet treatment? If not, you should.

Being pet store merchandise...your guinea pig, most likely, would have had a URI (or other illness) regardless of the bird infection situation. Most of them are sick and/or pregnant when they're bought.

Pet stores do not care about the health of the animals that they sell. They care about the profit margin in the receipts at the end of the day.
