Hi there,
I'm sorry to tell you this, but this is really an issue that should be addressed by a doctor. A dermatologist sounds like a good idea, but if you can't get an appointment with one, then I'd look into either a pediatrician or maybe an allergist.
No one here is going to be able to give you a diagnosis. Skin problems can be tricky, but it definitely sounds as though this is something that is not getting better. I would definitely eliminate all skin care products from her care, unless prescribed by a physician. Just use warm water for baths. Maybe get a hypoallergenic laundry detergent.
To your health,
Kathi
