What Is The Cure For Vaginal Yeast Infection Of A 9 Year Old Child?

My daughter is 9 and was on amoxicillian for an inner ear infection. She now has a vaginal yeast infection. I have been using cream but this is not helping. Is there anything I can give her other than the cream. The itching is driving her crazy?
