Try a cup of vinegar and a scoop of Oxy Clean.

I actualöy have the dame issue with a very good brand new washing machine. I believe the machine does a great job however, baby clothes smell horrid. Baby is on Neocate formula, perhaps thats why it smells? I use to use green laundry detergent and figured I would switch to Tide. Same issue after using Tide original and Tide free & gentle. I also tried adding Borax with no help. I will try vinegar/baking soda tonight... hope it works to get rid of the smell. I also let the clothes dry before putting them into the wash bin to prevent mold or stuff like that. Next is rinsing clothes/bibs and burp blankets prior to letting dry to put in washbin. Weirdly, we use reusable diapers and these come put smelling great!!!

Don't use green detergent. The scent is there for a reason.

OP - I had this problem and this is what I did -used borax and charlies oxy bleach (or some other "green" powder bleach) and like 3 scoops of mollys suds for babies - which has enzymes that help eat up the milk residue. wash in hot (usually soak for half an hour), the rinse twice. second rinse add 1/4 cup of vinegar.
