I haven’t had quite OP’s level of problem (yet) but realized about five years ago that I wasn’t washing as much of my armpit as I needed. The glycolic acid or salicylic acid would probably work well, I’m not saying don’t do that, but increase the area you clean.
Also, I was in the process of using one of those home IPL hair remover (not 100% perfect! but I like the effect!) and realized that I was going weeks without antiperspirant, and I have always been someone who absolutely needs antiperspirant and not just deodorant. I am assuming that the IPL is strong enough to kill bacteria.
