Unfortunately, homemade detergent lacks the surfactants to get the diapers clean (and safe for skin contact again). Tide is the holy shit option—no pun intended—and most cloth diapering parents I know swear by it (I personally hate the smell). If you're concerned about irritation from the detergent itself, try unscented powdered Seventh Generation.
Without surfactants, the diapers haven't been getting really clean, so you'll want to start with a regular detergent and strip soak to get them to base clean to start.
A bleach rinse after will help sanitize from the built-up gunk that's irritating baby's skin. Be sure to follow the wash/rinse instructions for after to really get the bleach out so that doesn't become an irritant itself.
I exclusively use prefolds, have really hard water, and have only had to strip once in 15 months. AIOs might be tougher to get clean because of all the layers, but I think the process is generally the same.
FWIW, this Babyganics Ointment is all I use when my kiddo is irritated from teething or new foods or whatever. It's also CD safe.
Good luck!
