What Causes An Offensive Odor In The Stools?

My just turned 3 year old seemingly healthy and very active, granddaughter s urine is very bright yellow, sometimes to the point of being orange and her urine smells foul. She was toilet trained about 10 months ago but has about 2 month ago started wetting herself, without realizing it it seems, as well as wetting the bed at night which she had not done for about 8 to 9 months. Her stool also, when she soils herself (also started happening again), has the same putrid smell to it. The smell is so bad that only one pair of wet pants will cause our large laundry to smell for a couple of hours if the pants are left even 5 minutes before rinsing them. Very unpleasant. The area between her legs is chafed and sore, and we were told by our local GP to apply Hydrosole which we have done, when needed. Her urine and stool have been sent to get checked, the urine twice, but both came back normal. Knowing that there is something , not quite right, will not convince anyone of anything. She was also send to give a blood sample, but the nurse was unsuccessful in her endeavour to draw blood from my granddaughters arm (couldn t find a vein) because the urine and stool samples did after all test negative. So we left it and now after another month of leaving it , I have decided to do some internet searching which has lead me to asking this. Please, what do I do now?
