What Is The Home Remedy For Fairly Large Boil?

I have a fairly large boil, about 2 inches wide and 1 inch long, that has gotten this big in only 3 days. I tend to get boils in my bikini area, where this one is too, a few days after I shave. Are there any home remedies, vitamins, supplements I can take to help it reduce in size and eventually heal?
