I seem to have a fungal skin infection i can't completely get rid of. i've seen a doctor who recommended i use a topical antifungal but i still get it?

Ask for fungal test: Fungal infections of the skin can be definitively diagnosed by viewing a skin scraping under the microscope, doing a fungal culture, or a skin biopsy. Once the diagnosis is definitively confirmed, oral antifungal pills and topical creams such as naftin (naftifine) are effective at clearing it up.
