Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Fishy odor following sex contact suggests that you are still having Bacterial vaginosis. It can be confirmed by vaginal smear test.
You consult your Gynecologist or a Genito-urinary physician. If the smear examination confirms the diagnosis they will help you to get it treated successfully with alternative antibiotics. It is better to have the treatment both of you together. Treatment for you alone the success rate is lower.
Nothing serious.
Get well soon.

A vaginal discharge with a fishy odour is usually bacterial vaginosis. This can be treated with topical creams or oral medication.
You can consider visiting your doctor for a prescription of medication if not available over the counter
