Threadworm... AGAIN!!!

Hi all... PLEASE can anyone tell me why my 9yo keeps getting threadworm. We are a very clean family. I am super OCD when coming to manage 'a dose', I boil wash, clean and wipe EVERYTHING and she removes clothes and showers actually in the shower each morning for 3 days after treatment, and sleeps in pj bottoms etc. We treat all the family each time and wash/change all beds, towels and clothes and wipe around then vacuum (its like a military operation each time!!). The 9yo is very hygienic, she always washes her hands and scrubs under her nails after going to the loo, 1 or 2, without being asked, she doesn't pick her nose or scratch her bum as she knows this can spread germs.... why the hell would we have at least 4 doses a year... Please HELP! I find it so disgusting and I'm sick of it happening. Thanks all in advance.

Probably coming from school? Could you check with GP of it would be ok to medicate once a month or something.
