Help! stinky diapers

Our BG smell like pee. I did the cold wash/ warm wash w/2 cups vinegar/ hot wash w/ a bit of detergent and 1/2 cup vinegar in rinse cycle. They still smell.

any other suggestions of things to try? or maybe use more vinegar?

What works for you?

    My BGs smelled a little stinky a few weeks ago.  Not terrible, but I could still smell them out of the dryer.  I tried extra detergent and extra washes/rinses and I put the inserts in the washer for a "sanitize" cycle.  It all helped but not enough.  Then I bleached just the inserts and rinsed them a ton and now no more stinkies.  Most CDs say not to use bleach, but BGs say you can.  It worked for me.
