There is a really great leave in product that is called Bio-silk. It's made with silk protein and it leaves your hair fortified and easy to comb out. It's a bit on the pricey side but it's worth it.

My hair was also very damaged and dry. Here's some tips.
Don't wash your hair every day. Ttry doing it every other day or every 3 days. The natural oils you produce that make your hair feel greasy are actually very good conditioning for your hair.
Don't do hot oil treatments.
DO go to a hair salon and get protein and other kinds of strengthening treatments. I get a treatment done at the salon once a month to keep my dry hair healthy.
When you can't go to the salon, do your own at home treatments. Invest in a good conditioner, like something from Chi, Paul Mitchell, Pureology, or Phyto Organics. Leave it in your hair and put your hair up in a shower cap. Leave it in the shower cap for 15-30 minutes, and every once in a while blow dry the shower cap (aplying heat from the blow dryer while your hair is soaking up conditioner opens up the folicles, allowing your hair to absorb more of the conditioner). Then after 15-30 minutes rinse your hair in cold water. If you can't stand cold showers, rinse it in the sink.
I do at home treatments about once or twice a week. It's been working great so far. =)
Good luck!

Aww I sympathize! That must be a nightmare having nothing work. Have you tried other kinds of stuff, other than what you get in chemists, drug stores, etc.? Like specially for curly hair products that you buy online? I haven't tried these myself.
