We've been to vet for antibiotics, drops, and even laser treatment, but my pup can't shake her ear infections! Can someone please help? There has gotta be some home remedy, something I'm missing.

When antibiotics aren't working, try probiotics in the food. This helps boost your dog's immunity so she can hopefully kick the infection on her own. Good luck.
Abigail is right. Also be sure you are feeding a high quality dog food. It has a real impact on your dogs health. The Vet bills are never worth the small amout of money you save. Be sure and have it checked for a yeast infection...it requires different treatment and different drugs.
Use unrefined coconut oil and garlic cloves. Take 2 to 3 garlic cloves simmer with coconut oil for 5 to 10 minutes then strain over cheese cloth into a bowl or jar then put in a medicine bottle with a dropper put two to three drops in infected ear twice a day for one week. You can Google recipes with coconut oil and garlic for dog ear infections if you want more of an explanation. Hope this helps. Oh and of course please make sure the mixture isn't to hot before putting in the infected ear.
Is your dog a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Pit Bull Terrier, or a different breed all together? Reason for me asking is because I have a Staffordshire Bull Terrier and he has ear infections all the time!! I've brought him to the vet numerous times in the past and got the medication and cured it but then itll happen again, and going to the vet plus buying antibiotics gets extremely expensive and just isn't realistic with my income.
