There is no auxiliary verb in 「~~たり(も)して」
たり = a connective particle
も = a particle
して = a verb. Since this is in the continuative form, the 「して」 ending is used only in casual speech.

The dictionary form of 「して」 is 「する」, if that is what you are asking about.
Ah, okay. I get it now. I wasn't sure if the 「して」 here was the regular 「する」 or if there was an aux. verb ending in 「~す」. Thanks.


Hey, does this rag smell like chloroform?
