Yes. And see a doctor.Yes of course you can. A spermicide isn't used as treatment, it doesn't stop ovulation either.

He needs to wear a condom either way.Bacterial vaginosis is a condition in women where the normal balance of bacteria in the vagina is disrupted and replaced by an overgrowth of certain bacteria. It is sometimes accompanied by discharge, odor, pain, itching, or burning. Unpleasant it may be, but yes, you can still get pregnant.

What is the treatment for vulvovaginitis?

The most common causes of vaginitis, candida (monilia, yeast infection) and bacterial vaginosis are due to imbalances in the vaginal environment. Often, they will resolve on their own without treatment, but most women prefer to take treatment to get rid of symptoms more quickly. Atrophic vaginitis, due to decreased estrogen, will often improve without treatment, but treatment can improve comfort and health in the interim. Vaginitis due to chemical irritants or allergens will also often resolve without treatment. Trichomoniasis, a cause of vaginitis spread by sex, needs treatment to go away.
