Yeasty ears - any ideas?

Our boy struggles with allergies - we can mostly manage his skin and diet, Cytopoint and wiping him down, but his ears are just a constant problem. They get overgrown with yeast so quickly. We even had him anaesthetised for a deep clean and testing and within a couple of days they were going gunky again.

It is really hard to clean them as he hates them being touched - I get the impression his ears are so sensitive and probably a bit painful at times. We've tried wipes and drops/flushes but any time we get close he barely tolerates us cleaning the outer portion of his ear.

He's especially bad right now so going to the vet on Monday, but has anybody found anything easy to use and reliable?

I don't have any nasty yeast pictures, but cute puppy tax attached anyway.
