I have fought this for years until I got a hold of a product from England now sold in the US called Stay Byotrol Clean sanitizer (germcure.com $11) This has prevented recurrence and decontaminated me. I also used there household cleaning stuff Microcleanse to completely decontaminate my house. The skin stuff goes on clean without any sticky residue and I cannot tell it is on. I use it once a day all over my body and nostrils( a MD told me to do this). I have been staph free for months! This stuff actually works. Good Luck!
