How to deal with a yeast infection while on antibiotics?

Question

I had cellulitis from a bug bite and my doctor put me on anti biotics. Eventually, I got a yeast infection from taking anti biotics (as it is happened before, nothing new to me). I have a few pills left from what my doctor prescribed to me for cellulitis. But this yeast infection is so itchy and uncomfortable.
Is there anything I can use to make the pain and itching less horrible until I finish the anti biotics? 
I plan to see my gynecologist after I am finished (only two pills left, but it is very uncomfortable) 
Help?

You may use any OTC yeast infection remedy while on antibiotics unless there's a specific reason you haven't mentioned why you shouldn't.

Call the doctor and ask if he can call in a 'script for Diflucan. It's an oral medication that you take once, and again two days later. Two pills usually.

For more immediate relief...three parts water to one part hydrogen peroxide. Soak a rag with that and wipe the affected area. That'll help until you can get the medication.
