first time eczema flare up & depressed!

some one please help me!

im 24 male and a recent father to a 19 day old daughter...

before i start my story.. a little history about myself... i've never had an eczema flare up before in my life... i have very very mild eczema before and most recently on my left arm which i later found out to be infected with staph... i guess im young and ignorant to healthy eating... i don;t eat alot of veges and hardly at fruits... i exercise lots and do take OPC3 antioxidents occasionally with vitamin C.... prior to that... ive never knew what eczema was in my 24yrs of existance.. also im hygenically quite good...

my story began when i stayed with my wife in the maternity hospital for 3 nights during her stay. During that 3 days... i noticed red itchy spots popping up all over my chest and abdominal area. i didnt think much of it thinking it was just spider bites from my clothes or something... i did scratch but not too much because my wife would tell me off....
then after 7 days... the condition did not improve and more spots popped up... and also began to be unbearably itchy... i saw a doctor and she didnt know what the red spots were and the infection on my arm was... so she took a swab of the arm.... i came back to see another doctor who said the results came back as Staph and but he said it didnt look like a Staph and was puzzled too... so he referred me to a dermatologist....
the dermatologist diagnosed it as eczema and was quite surprised at how big of an area it has spread.... he gave me 5 tubes of cortisosteroid creams and some pennicilin Antibiotics for the staph... told me to come back in 7 days if it hasnt gotten better...
it has been 9 days since seeing the specialist and the condition has gotten far worst... the chest has gotten very bad and it has spread to both arms, shoulders, lower back, both thights, and on my face and both ears..... it weeps continously and my ears are constantly hot... the cream has done nothing to relieve the itchiness at all... sorbolene has proved to be the most effective but extremely limited only....

I am very very desperate for a solution... i dont step out of hte house because im scared of my appearance and also worstening my condition... I dont want to touch my baby girl for fear of infecting her (even thou i know eczema is not contagious)... I have ordered Freederm and desperately waiting for it to arrive (im in Australia)... I am also seeing a Chinese medicine doctor to see what he or she can do tommorow...

I can't put down what exactly may have caused this flare up... the dermatologist said it was stress which i can imagine... but i think it was probably a combination of stress, sleepless nights, poor diet, weak liver = lowered immune system...

what else can I do to solve my problem?? how do i build my immuse system back up to prevent this ever happening again?

help!
