White Spot, fin rot and fin split on my fish?

One of our goldfish (a black moore), starting from a week ago, got a few splits in its fins and scratches on its side and then got what appears to be white spot. In the last day or two, a lot more fin splits have appeared and the ends look as though they are rotting away. Is fin split, fin rot and loss of / scratched scales normal for Ich / White Spot, or is this a seperate issue? And does anyone have advice on treating it? We have being doing regular water changes and tested the water and the conditions are near perfect, plus we have done a few doses with a white spot cure, but it doesn't seem to be helping. I am looking after someone else's fish, so it must not die!

Fin or Tail Rot (see photos) Fins that are badly torn or frayed for reasons other than fighting will usually indicate fin or tail rot. Fin or tail rot is a bacterial disease that usually attacks weak or minimally damaged fin edges. Once established, the bacterium consumes the fin as it works its way up toward the fish's body. This causes the fins to appear frayed or ragged or in severe cases nearly stubs. Frayed fins can also be a sign of water problems in which case the pH, ammonia, or nitrites are too high. You should check your water conditons before treating. The best prevention is to maintain accurate water conditions. Sometimes the salt level will be too high. This can cause the effects of fin-rot. Symptoms: The fish's tail or fins are ragged, frayed or appear to be shrinking or decaying. Goldfish may have red streaks in their veiltails. Treatment: It is best treated with an antibiotic. There will be one best suitable at your local pet store. Make sure it states that it treats Fin or Tail Rot. In some cases a secondary infection or fungus will appear. If this is the case, treat the fish for the fin rot and then proceed to the fungus problem
