Me and my friends were being dumbasses and sprayed ourselves with some gum removal stuff and it has left a couple of burns with pus-bubbles, for lack of a better word, on them

Some more info to work with, this happened a couple of days ago but the rest of my family has said to just keep draining the blisters and put neosporin on it. Bad stuff to do apparently from the answers.

Right, no popping!
Aloe vera gel (straight from the plant is best) and apply liberally.
I had a friend who was welding without covering his arms, and he had what sounds very similar to what you have. We applied the aloe vera gel all the time, as soon as it looked like it was drying up, we would just put more on. It cleared up fast, and left no scarring.
If you do find you have scarring after the burns have healed, you can use Vitamin E gel capsules rubbed onto them.

it can be a second degree burn in which case, you need to go see a doctor in the morning so he can give you some medication.Remove jewelry or tight clothing from the burned area before it begins to swell.
Flush the burn with cool running water or apply cold- water compresses (a wet towel or handkerchief) until the pain lessens. Do not use ice or ice water, which can cause more damage to the burned area.
Try not to break the blisters. If the blisters break, the exposed skin can become infected.
Cover the burn with a clean (sterile, if possible), dry, nonfluffy bandage such as a gauze pad. Do not put tape on the burn.
Do not put ointments, grease, petroleum jelly, butter, or home remedies on the burn. These substances can hold the heat in, making the burn worse.
It will take about 10 days to 2 weeks to heal but please go to a doctor so you can be safe about it..please, please, please...

antibotics
if you want to go natural you can soak in a warm tube and add alot of apple cider vinegar. after you get out of the tub spray your wound with a mixture of water and tea tree oil about 2 caps to the bottle.
Get Well Soon!!!

It means.. go in to the doctor and make sure you don't need an antibiotic to clear them out. Also you may need them lanced open. go in and get checked out so that you don't scar, or get infected.
