My 6 Yr Old's Eczema Is Awful!

We use Aquaphor, hydra-cortisone cream as well as cream prescribed by her doctor - but her eczema is so persistent! We use 'free' detergent, no fabric softener, and she showers instead of taking a bath, so the shampoo and soaps (also FREE) do not sit on her skin. We've had her tested for allergies - nothing. Dermatologist is next! Any advice? And now that the warmer months are coming, any sunscreen recommendations? Thanks!
