Yeast Infection

My daugher has a yeast infection.  She is currently in disposables to treat it, but I am wondering the best way to treat the cloth diapers so she doesn't get another yeast infection.   Thanks!  I have heard to use bleach, but also heard that isn't safe for cloth diapers.  I have bumgenius pockets, elementals and freetimes.  Tots bots bamboozles and AIO.   Swaddlebees, Rumparooz, fuzzibunz and covers.  Thanks.

    I have all Freetimes.  I ran a cycle with 1/4 cup of bleach when we first started treating her.  Then I added 50 drops each of tea tree oil and grapefruit seed extract until the yeast was completely clear.  Theoretically, the hot water should kill the yeast.  But I'd rather be safe than sorry.  BG actually recommends bleaching your dipes periodically.  1/4 cup in a full load of dipes is no more damaging than a chlorinated swimming pool.
