The home school message boards are all a buzz with people suffering with allergies. It's allergy season down here in SW Florida too! Actually, it's seems to always be allergy season, on of the negatives of living in the warm sun all year round! 
Here are some things that really work and are constants in our home and friends homes.
Have you ever tried a Neti Pot, if not you really should consider using it a few times a day. Not only is it effective for allergy season but keeps you sinus passage in tip, top shape!
Adding a little essential oil to the Neti Pot can make the relief even better:

Also, living constantly with aromatherapy either in a diffuser or humidifier works. The choice of which to use depends on whether you need to drain (humidifier) or are draining to much (diffuser).
Taking key vitamins to boost your immune system and using aromatherapy throughh the day and night is a wonderful way to breathe freely! Go Green Girl has a short and to the point blog post on why, what and how to use oils: http://www.gogreengal.org/2011/02/allergy-seasons-natural-support-with-essential-oils-for-strong-immune-systems/
My well loved and much used essential oil station is as much a part of our daily life as the food we eat. My shelf can be found at my kitchen desk and all of the kids and adults in my life know where to go to get relief!
