This page has some info that might help:
http://tracetcp.sourceforge.net/usage_proxy.html
but it might require you install that package.  

Also the tcptraceroute package can help:  (slaged this off a google search)

Find it at:

will do a TCP traceroute on port 80.

will do a TCP traceroute on port 25 to tell you what hops your TCP 
 packets take to get to the host. Because the ICMP route, and the TCP 
 route might be a bit different because of router configs.

 see the IP's to get to my upstream provider.... Proxy server before I
