5 Month Old Allergic to Both Milk & Soy - What to Feed Him?

My 5-month old son has had a pretty severe case of eczema for over 5-wks. We've switched formulas several times and just had blood test done to confirm allergies. We are now trying Neocate, which is very expensive and he does NOT like the taste. Does anyone have a suggestion for an alternative formula? He's allergic to: milk, soy, wheat, egg whites, peanuts, codfish. I've had people recommend goat's milk - but my research indicates this is not a good alternative due to lack of vitamins/nutrients that infants need.
