A regimen of Diflucan (same thing used in humans) will knock it out of his system, where it lives esp. in the small intestine.

I've not heard of fatty acids being helpful for yeast, but probiotics are essential. Once yeast has assaulted the sm. intestine, you need to help re-populate the intestine w/ the healthy flora or yeast will just continue to take over.
the two things that will help with yeast and bacteria are probiotics and also 1/4 tsp daily of raw coconut oil as coconut is a natural antifungal and antibacterial and it heals the dog from the inside out
