Have you had allergy tests? They will tell you if you are allergic to dogs. It is strange that more than one person has it. I've read that in most cases they never find the cause. I would suggest vacuuming all your carpets and furniture and throwing the vac bag away and put the vac. in the garage until after you have tried this. Wash all bedding and any throw rugs. Ask a friend/relative to take the dog to their home for a couple of weeks to see if having her out of the house makes any difference. .Have you gotten new carpeting or sheets, clothing-- furniture? I had hives for 5 years and the drs. didn't know what caused them. I found Zyrtec (prescription at the time) and it was wonderful. It took affect within minutes of taking it. Good luck. |
