I would look : At possible ways you are reinfecting yourself, such as making sure your shoes are disinfected to the best of your ability. I would consider an oral medication for a couple of weeks. I would make sure you are not using a shower others with possible fungus use. If your feet sweat, you need to control the sweating.

It could be...: The best otc medication (in my opinion) is lotrimin (clotrimazole) ultra. Dilute vinegar soaks are good as well. Dry the inside of your shoes by placing them up-side down over an air return vent at home overnight. There is a device available to sterilize your shoes as well...
