You may be able to have the BB retapped to Italian threads. There is 1.075mm of difference between ISO and the Italian standard. I would think that this would only be possible on the left side BB threads.

If you can go that route - and if possible - take it to a local framebuilder. They have far more experience tapping BB shells than your LBS does.
