[quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately people can develop allergies as adults, even to something (a pet, a food, etc.) to which they've been exposed for years. It does happen. OP, instead of trying med after med, go ahead and pay for a full testing panel at an allergist. Your primary care doctor likely has to refer you. Wouldn't you rather get appropriate testing and find out for sure what the allergen really is, instead of trying lots of different OTC pills and possibly assuming it's the dogs? It might be something else that you can eliminate or treat (like seasonal allergies, dust allergies, etc.). And if indeed you have developed an allergy to the dogs, you will at least have that information for sure and can make some decisions about taking meds for the rest of the dogs' lives, or rehoming the dogs if you are really having issues.
