Once my vet diagnoses a problem, I can go back for a recheck of that problem at half price, within 30 days. Don't know if your vets do that... you may want to ask them, or suggest it to them!

Does she have a lot of hair in her ear canals? This can cause recurrent infections, as it prevents the wax from being able to come out on it's own.
I didnt realise the hair could cause recurrent infections, she does have some long hair around the opening of the ear.. I will trim this hair and see if it helps.
Hopefully we can get rid of the infection soon, it kills me knowing she is in pain
