Daughter Having Issues "Down There"

My 6 yo has been complaining of pain in her vaginal area, and it is very red. She wipes very well (possibly too well on occasion) and always goes front to back. She is constantly adjusting her underwear or scratching it - which isn't always appropriate! We tried putting A&D ointment on it, and that seems to help a little, but she doesn't like the feel of it. She also has eczema pretty bad, so I'm wondering if this could be another rash spreading from that... She has been taking a clean water bath every couple of days (no soap)...
