We have tried a prescription shampoo on the face that wasn't doing any good so the treatment is now over the counter hydrocortisone and washing with only warm water...no chemicals. This is still not doing the trick. I think we need to use SOME kind of cleanser since this condition involves over active oil glands. But what is the best, if we still don't use a prescription?

Dove is not a soap. You can also try Noxema because it is not a soap.

I would try Cetaphil. Here are the basics taken from the product's website...
Cetaphil® Gentle Skin Cleanser is great for daily makeup removal or as part of a skincare regimen to treat the dryness caused by topical medications used in the treatment of acne, fine lines and wrinkles. Originally formulated for dermatologists, it is gentle on your skin and sensitive to your skin’s needs. Cetaphil® Gentle Skin Cleanser will not strip the skin of natural protective oils or emollients, or disturb the skin’s natural pH balance. It is fragrance-free and non-comedogenic, making it an excellent choice for daily facial cleansing.
Ingredients: Water, Cetyl Alcohol, Propylene Glycol, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Stearyl Alcohol, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Butylparaben.
