Differential regularization is applied to a field theory of a nonrelativistic charged boson field [phi] with [lambda]([phi][sup *][phi])[sup 2] self-interaction and coupling to a statistics-changing U(1) Chern-Simons gauge field. Renormalized configuration-space amplitudes for all diagrams contributing to the [phi][sup *][phi][sup *][phi][phi] four-point function, which is the only primitively divergent Green's function, are obtained up to three-loop order. The renormalization group equations are explicitly checked, and the scheme dependence of the [beta] function is investigated. If the renormalization scheme is fixed to agree with a previous one-loop calculation, the two- and three-loop contributions to [beta]([lambda],[ital e]) vanish, and [beta]([lambda],[ital e]) itself vanishes when the self-dual'' condition relating [lambda] to the gauge coupling [ital e] is imposed.
