Bad Breath And Body Odor. Reason? Cure?

My daughter is 14 has good hygiene but smells like vomit , her clothes, her room etc. her breath also smells very strong , not fishy. Kinda like lysol. Ive asked the dentist and he thinks she had Gerd cause shes missing enamel on the back of her teeth in the front...dr has no idea and says to cut dairy out for a week or gluten and see if it improves , that would be great but unfortunately my salary cant afford to SEE if tat makes it better. I want to get to the bottom of this. Her breath has smelled for 5 years everyday. Her body odor has been the last 3 years. It smells even stronger when she wakes up. She doesn t sweat very much either. She has no other symptoms. If she only has Gerd would it cause her bad body odor? And bad breath at the same time? Its unbearable to me and very hard to be around at times. Sometimes its a vomit/ smoky smell hard to explain. You can smell it on everything in her room. Ive taken alllll her clothes out of her room and washed them . There is no history of reflux or any food allergies in our family ...please help what could it be? What tests should I ask for
