Persistent Gleet?

We've treating her everyday, twice a day and she seems to be having a resurgence again?
Her vent is messy and her back feathers were dry for a couple days and are wet again. The smell has returned. When I soaked her a few days ago she was kind of dripping? Clear fluid. It looked like water almost.
I can still give it to her orally but like... am I missing something? Am I supposed to be cleaning up her vent more often? Does she have something else? I put apple cider vinegar, just a splash in the gallon waterer they have, could that mess things up?
When was her last egg?

Dripping clear fluid sounds like it may be Albumen. I'd give her 300mg Calcium Citrate+D3 for a week, see if she expels any material.

Make sure water stations are clean and that food is not getting moldy. Sometimes a hen may have more than one condition going on at a time.

She laid one day before yesterday, I was actually joking with people about having to watch the three cycle through the nesting box waiting to collect the eggs. Best I can tell all three are laying daily since there were 6 eggs in there.
I saw the inside of the waterer today and it's clean. I sort of raise out the water ring whenever can because they're chickens, they like dirt.
I'll double check the food in the morning since we were having issues with water getting in about a month ago.
She seems to be pooping normally but sometimes when she goes it kind of looks like it's covered in brown gravy? I tried to find a photo that looked close enough online and after 15 minutes, determined I might just have to take one if you want it.
I'll have a long into the stuff you mentioned and see about getting it in the mail asap.
