    Sounds like I should have her wear her swimsuit when I do the bathtub tests.

    When you are attempting to isolate a problem, you can have only one variable change at a time. So, she should NOT wear the suit as that is another variable in the mystery. You might do a test with just having her play in the bathtub with her swimsuit on without adding anything to the water. If that doesn't cause skin reactions, then you can rule out the swim suit as being the problem.
