Had the same problem a few years ago. We tried drain cleaners. We removed the traps and scoured them. Nothing worked. Then for no apparent reason the odor disappeared. I think somehow sewer gases were backing up but have no idea what corrected it.
I don't believe it is the water. If it were the water the odor would be evident in all sinks, showers, washing machine and tubs.
Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
