Basics : Your gas is a combination of air you swallow during feeds and that created when gut germs digest nutrients you do not absorb. A food diary may help you spot other foods you consume that may feed the gas producing germs so you could avoid them.

Diet: Sounds like although you have dropped the gluten and dairy that your still have some type of intolerance. Complete food allergy testing may be helpful. Also, although taking a probiotic sometimes the count needs to be increased for them to be effective.
