Any hope for Columnaris outbreak?

Pretty positive I've got Columnaris in my tank killing off my fish one by one. Inevitably a new fish will get white columns on their side and die every 12 hours or so. I've been following the guide from fishlab.com recommending Furan-2 + Kanaplex. I'm getting discouraged as I'm on day 4 of 5 and still have a cherry barb on his way out. Somtimes it's one or two neon tetras at a time or a cherry barb. I was hoping to salvage most of my tank but I don't know if this will ever stop. Any encouragement for me? 

For whenever this is over....do I have to restart my tank? I hope not.
