I've always heard to use a back-up method of protection until the antibiotics are done and then another 7 days afterwards. This article: http://health.ivillage.com/gyno/gynobc/0,,5l0c,00.html
says that it is unlikely for most antibiotics to have an effect, but if I were taking them I would still use back-up, just to be on the safe side. The article also has some interesting info about how medications interfere with HBC.
It's pretty impossible that you could've gotten pregnant from the fingering, as sperm do not live long once exposed to air, and since he wiped the semen off. No need to worry :).
