Suggest Treatment For Skin Rash On The Buttocks Of A Child

My two year old has had a rash for a couple weeks now, on her lower back and buttocks, which has now started forming a few small white heads. Notes, She does scratch so I m assuming it itches She s currently potty training- wears underwear at home, pull-ups at daycare, and a diaper to bed. Tried using a fragrance free/sensitive skin lotion and body wash(Johnson&Johnson) I started using a menthol itch relief lotion for dry sensitive skin Eucerin brand(last couple days)
