If you aren't ready to do that and there is a lot of breakthrough itching with the antihistamine, Atopica is an option (although there can be some serious side effects long-term bc it's an immunosuppressant - it is a good drug though).
Do you know the best way to find a derm.? Would shots be daily or like monthly? I know shots are never fun but I feel it might help her better.
