need ideas

I somehow got athletes foot.  Anyone have ideas?  I can't use my usual OTC stuff right now so I am looking for something natural.

Apple cider vinegar Soak your feet in a 50/50 mixture of apple cider vinegar and water for ten minutes daily up to ten days or until symptoms disappear. This will relieve the itching and peeling of athlete's foot.

?  Soak a cotton ball in vinegar, coat the fungus and let dry. Apple cider vinegar has antifungal properties.

tea tree oil, neem oil, and cinnamon also came up in my googling. But vinegar had the most mentions.

Thanks.  I was ready to try TTO until I read that pregnant and BF women should not use.
