Need to perform fresh W10 reinstall on infected Acer E5-573-5653 that has no DVD drive

My brand new, just out of the box Acer laptop has a bad infection, a Google Ad disguised as a Chrome download, and the infection is very persistent.

 

What I really want to do at this point is a complete reinstall of W10.

 

I have a W10 DVD but the laptop doesnt have a DVD drive. Can I connect a USB DVD drive and then reinstall from the pseuso-BIOS menu available from SHIFT + reboot? Is there a better way?

 

And will I need to grab any special drivers from Acer before I start?

 

Help!
