Read this post the other day, so sorry to hear about your daughter.
I was a little reluctant to post, however it sounds like you may still be struggling with this. When I had mono (keep in mind that's, ahem, 20 years ago) my physician told me to gargle with hydrogen peroxide. I was not on any antibiotics, steroids, or other drugs. It really did help with the infection. Ever since then when I have the beginnings of a sore throat, or strep, I've used it and it seems to help clear things up quicker. I know she does not have mono, but it may help. You may consider googling it, or asking your doctor if it would be worth a try. The taste is not the best, and you certainly don't want to swallow it, but at least from my experience it seems to be an effective "home" remedy.
