MY lil man has been very lethargic for at least 3 weeks, his skin is peeling and he is not well at all!
I've researched, and a 3 day salt water bath is recommended
could it help?

Thanks
 
A 3 day salt bath doesn't seem right, the very first things that need to be checked are water parameters including GH and temp as turn go from there, peeling slime coat will be a water issue.
 
Salt baths are only good if your axolotl has a fungal infection, but it sounds like there might be a slime coat issue. Can you post a picture of your axolotl, and provide us with your water parameters (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and temperature)?
