Any remedies for underarm fungal infection?

My 15 year old DD is very sporty and active and developed fungal infection in her armpits which had cleared up. One armpit has flared up and we can't get it cleared up.

She has medicated shower gel and we are also using a mild steroid cream. The doctor also prescribed a deodorant to put on at night to stop sweating but this has made her underarm irritated and red so we have stopped. She can't put normal deodorant now under that arm until it heals.

She showers in the morning and at night.

My sister in law had mentioned using canisten and a natural deodorant?

Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated

Nizarol shampoo (Don't know if I'm spelling that right) and lamisal cream. That's what my gp prescribed me for similar I had on my torso.
