I have been searching and searching for a soy/dairy free probiotic for Olivia and myself.
A few articles have indicated use of Probiotics to assist with immune function in the infants' gut as a means of decreasing reactivity to large food proteins.
Ther-Biotic®Infant Formula at by Klair labs (www.protherainc.com)
I phoned the company to ensure soy/dairy free and reviewed a document confirming testing of dairy free -

The professional price is reasonable: 15.50 per bottle (2.5 oz)
Klair labs also produces a line of hypoallergenic vitamins - which I have also been searching for:
VitaSpectra is an interesting formula (for me not Olivia):
It is a powdered multiple vitamin/mineral supplement typically used for for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders. So it is formulated for someone following a gluten-free/casein-free diet. It is also hypoallergenic: VitaSpectrum™ is free of common allergens, including milk/casein, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat/gluten, yeast, and soybeans. No starch, maltodextrin, stearates, artificial sweeteners, colors, flavors, or preservatives are used.
Before starting either of these I want to talk to the Pediatrician and I want to finish the 2 week elimination diet. We are still waiting to talk to the gastroenterologist - we will see.
