Test for bacterial overgrowth

I think gas and bloating is my worst problem with IBS. My constipation seems to be under control now, but I am still having lots of gas that doesn't come out.
I want to ask my doctor to test me for bacterial overgrowth as I heard that can be the cause of all the gas. My question is, how do they test for it? Did anyone have that done? How do they treat for it?
