Wash your feet: Daily with antfungal soap. Make sure to change socks daily. Consider decontaminating your shoes.

Antifungal: There are simple things to try as stated. But the skin layer non the bottom of the foot (my assumption as to location) takes 40-60 days to turn over. Sometimes it just takes a different antifungal also. Definitely see your podiatrist for something to kill fungus in your shoes as fungus is a hardy little beast that can form a spore around itself when not in contact with a host.
