Or is there a difference between "treating" a werewolf bite and "curing"  it?
 
Lyra:
I think "treating" might indicate first-aid to be given right after a person is bitten. (Later we learn the recurring effects of the bite can be treated by Wolfsbane Potion, but alas, there is no cure -- once bitten, always a werewolf, or always someone "with a furry little problem").

Juli: 
You're right Lyra, most diseases in our world have Treatment, few of them have a cure. Justo to give you an exemple, High Blood Pressure is easily treated, but it can't be cured (at least not with the medical knoledge of today). I think what the sentence refers to is, like you said, a first aid treatment, possibly antibiotics to keep the unjury from infecting. Lycantrophy can be treated, there's the Wolfsbane potion, it effectively treats "werewolfness", but it doesn't cure it. Like insulin, it treats really well a diabetic, but it doesn't heal.
