Have you fully inspected her skin, everywhere...? Anything unusual?

I guess if it truly smells this bad, I'd ask to do a skin scraping and then grow it out in culture for 14 days to look for fungus/yeast.

Has seborrhea been ruled out?

Are there any signs of hypothyroidism? Anytime there are unresolved skin/hair issues -- you MUST look deeper, bc these are just symptoms of something else.

And most importantly...is she not getting enough relief from the Atopica? If not, the dose can be increased and given 2x a day, rather than just once a day. You should also talk to your vet about the new shot for allergies, Cytopoint.
