Brief Answer:
Possibility of allergy

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I understand your concerns about itching in vagina.

You said you work in Bush. If you are working out in the fields there is possibility of exposure to some allergens which is making itching worst.

Your camp paramedic had given you antifungal cream . It would have responded if it was fungal infection.

This appears to be allergic to place you are working.

I suggest you change place of work or take off for a week.

Meanwhile use different set of undergarments as undergarments or pants could also be reason for allergy.

Let me know if you need any more clarifications.
