Change shoes and tx: Get rid of problematic footwear - otherwise wash all laces , soles and footwear in bleach - color safe - if it survives the wash, great - if it doesn't, sorry. Use Lamisil (terbinafine) cream twice daily for two weeks and repeat the wash also sun dry it after the dryer for a few hours.

Medication: You have taken the proper steps with good hygeine. You should use a daily antifungal spray or powder, but an oral antifungul for a short period my be the answer.
