Hi,
From history it seems that she might be having worm infestation giving this problem.
During night worms coming out from anal canal might gravitate into vagina giving itching and burning sensation.
Continue with local cream.
She might require one course of anti-worm medicine like Albendazole syrup.
Ok and take care.
