I used to get urinary tract infections all the time. They're miserable and I'm so sorry you're suffering with one. I don't have any magic cures but I found this web page with some suggestions.
When I was getting UTIs a lot my doctor gave me a presciption for a drug I cannot now remember the name of - it relieved the pain and urgency without treating the infection so I could take it if I got an infection over the weekend and still be tested for bacteria on Monday. I think it started with a "p" and it turned my urine this weird yellow/orange color. My doctor also prescribed an antibiotic for me to take after intercourse - it made a world of difference. I don't know if that's an option for you (I didn't have IBS then) but it might be worth discussing.
I hope you're feeling better.
