Sort array of documents by date string - ReactJS

Question

I am trying to order documents by date ( in my case billDate from the example below ) . But i don't want to convert my date into an integer . ( i don't need to ) So i wonder how can i order my string array by date . I would be glad if someone has some examples . Thank you Response structure from the Back end :

[
   {0:
    billAmount: "18.37 EUR"
    billDate: "07.03.2019"
    billStatus: "offen"
    checked: false
    documentCountry: "BG"
    documentId: 100421294
    documentNumber: "2019-BRS-2000000478"
    documentType: "Document 1"
    endDate: "06.03.2019"
    licensePlateNumber: null
    serialNo: null
    startDate: "05.03.2019"
    tableData: {id: 0}
    },
    {1:
    billAmount: "18.37 EUR"
    billDate: "07.03.2019"
    billStatus: "offen"
    checked: false
    documentCountry: "BG"
    documentId: 100421292
    documentNumber: "2019-BRS-2000000478"
    documentType: "Document 2"
    endDate: "06.03.2019"
    licensePlateNumber: null
    serialNo: null
    startDate: "05.03.2019"
    tableData: {id: 1}
    }, ... ]

// Assuming the array is in variable response

function compare(a, b) {
  const date1 = a.billDate.split('.').reverse().join('');
  const date2 = b.billDate.split('.').reverse().join('');
  return date1.localeCompare(date2);    
}

const sortedResponse = response.sort(compare);
