I think bacteriophages should be investigated much more, unfortunately I don't think big pharma is that interested in them, although they are also pretty uninterested in antibiotics too, because they generally don't make much profit. So I think at least in this economic model in the west we are unlikely to have them widely available. I am admittedly quite out of date, all I remember is that there was more research and use of them in eastern europe/russia.
