Default Sick Newt Disease/Parasites/Fungus?

I've had my first firebellied newt for about 8 months now, I decided to get a second one about 2 or 3 weeks ago and got a second one which got sick and died after about 4 days. It started with a few white bumps on its body which quickly progressed to skin peeling off of its back and its tail going completely necrotic and falling off all within the course of 2 days. Now my first newt seems to be developing the same symptoms with white pimple like bumps appearing on its back in 3 places and one on the back of his head. so do I try to salt bathe the poor guy or fridge him??
