Hmmm, my first instinct when a house trained dog becomes unhousetrained is to consider a medical issue. It sounds like you have talked to your vet, but have they had a good physical and bloodwork?
Belly bands can be a good short term solution while retraining male dogs, have you tried them? A wet belly band followed up with a nice cold bath over their privates can often help with teh incentive to stay clean indoors.
