Especially in the summer, and after exercise sweat accumulates under the breast. Bacteria accumulates in all skin folds and needs to be cleansed and dryed daily.
The pimples aren't true acne. It's due to the perspiration (wetness) combined with darkness, where bacteria thrive. It can get quite irritated.
After she showers she should lift 'em up and pat dry and then blow dry underneath there until it's completely dry. (Sorry but I do it everyday) and then apply powder to absorb the wetness during the day. Chafing powder is the best, but any powder is better than no powder.
Monistat makes an awesome powder and gel (that turns into powder). It's called Monistat Soothing Care Chafing Relief Powder and it's in a dark blue container.
She needs to do this everyday to avoid the pimples, and definately must stop popping them which just spreads the bacteria.
There are also something called Breezies Bras that they sell on QVC that wick moisture away from that area called UltimAir. They're great, I've loved of them that I've bought. Go to qvc.com and type in Breezies Bras in the search box.
I bought the Monistat powder and gel at drugstore.com but after that I saw it at a local drugstore, go figure. Now my husband and son keep stealing them away cuz they get irritations in southern areas. ahem.

Listen to Genie Angel. They're sweat bumps and can be really hard to get rid of. They're most likely from the bra.
As always, don't ever pop your pimples. It spreads bacteria.
And, no, they are not disgusting! Pimples are caused by natural body functions that everyone of every age has and you are not nasty or dirty in any way just because you have them! Genetics and your activity level are the main cause of the difference in the severity of acne.

1stly tell her not to pop the pimples. then see if she has fullers earth, if she does gud apply a little on the pimples while the earth is giving the cooling effect, this will dry the pimples and wil also stop then from cuming back. also tell her not to wear her bra for a couple of days. most probably the pimples are there cos of the heat.
Best of Luck

scrub them in the shower and try a light acne cream on them at night. You could also try taking vitamins like vitamin B12 to help the skin. Also make sure to apply lotion to your skin after a shower to make sure it stays moisturized. This is probably caused by sweat and keeps coming back because this is a very common place to sweat and acne feeds off sweat and dirt.

1. She should stop popping them so she doesn't get an infection.
2. She should see her doctor about the problem.

That's so disgusting. Yuck. It could be a yeast infection. Yes you can get them under your breast. She should go to a doctor.
