Air Purifiers

I’m moving into a house with a dog, and I have allergies. However, they are not terrible and I take medicine. I’ve been searching for different ways to help my allergies. So far I have got change the floors from carpet to a hard surface, get a HEPA vacuum cleaner, get allergen pillow cases and mattress covers, replace the filters on the air conditioners, no extra clothe items in the room (including stuffed animals), get an ionic breeze air purifier.
As far as the dog goes I got give him a bath once a week, wipe him down with wet cloth daily, keep out of your bedroom, have good ventilation.
I’m open to a variety of suggestions; However, I cannot replace the dog. Besides he’s a really sweet lab. I’m open to using natural remedies, such as tea or hot peppers to specific cleaning techniques. SO PLEASE SHARE YOUR INPUT AND DIRECT ME TO RELEVANT WEBSITES!

He was mad at the beginning when I got the cat because he said he felt left out, and 2nd best because he did not get to be included in picking out the pet but we were broke up at the time. 1 month later he says my kitten makes him very sick, and he has developed bronchitis from his allergies. My daughter and I both have allergies and suffer from asthma, we are o.k. I dust, vacuum daily, and put the cat in another room before he comes in, purchased a 2nd hepa air purifier, use allergen reducer carpet powder, febreze allergen reducer spray, and wash the cat every day. I even offered to buy him Claritin. The cat doesnt shed much or jump on furniture either He told me to get rid of it or hell have to stay away because of his health, my daughter and I love the new kitten so I refuse to give it away am I wrong?

i really want to get a cat but my dad is allergic to them. he said that i could get a cat if i pay for ever thing including the cat and make sure he doesn’t get an allergic reaction. we have a huge room downstairs that’s filled with Windows and fly screens. i want to keep the cat there and the room is big enough for the cat to get lots of exercise. i have 2 dogs so the cat will have to be sociable to dogs or else i wont be able to get a cat. i have a hepa air purifier and vacuum and hypoallergenic cat shampoo. i have even got a specially designed brush that attracts the allergen and picks up hair fibers and dander. if worst comes to worst my dad said he would even get the allergy shots or take medication for it but he would prefer not too. i have heaps of other ideas but my main concern is getting the cat. i don’t want to get a completely hairless cat or a semi hairless cat like the cornish rex or the devon rex because they don’t have very good temperaments and do not get along with dogs. Can you please suggest a good lap cat that is small, has short fur, has a great temperament (loves to be held and patted) gets along with dogs and doesn’t shed much. i know its allot to ask but as many breeds as you can find will be great

also is it true that if you handle a kitten allot when its young it will get used to it? thanks.

Today I even offered to buy him Claritin and buy a cage to go outside to put the kitten in when he comes over he said no b/c he didn’t want to put his health at risk and he broke up with me. What should I do?

I live in an older house (about 1100 sq. ft.). We have a terrible mold problem. I’ve been using a HEPA system, but the filters are .00 each, and it takes three of them. I’m interested in hearing from anyone who has experience with the Ionic Pro Turbo air purifier, as to how well it performs, or what is the best, affordable, air purification system.
In the meanwhile, I think I found a better solution. I bought two 20 inch, square, window fans (.85 each). Then, I bought two 20X20 3M Ultra Allergen Filterete furnace filters (.75 each), and simply put them on the back side of the fan.

Man, does it ever filter. It puts out a lot of air, and the filters catch allergenic particles such as mold, and even smoke. So far, it works great. And it sure beats paying 0, for an air purifier, (which is basically just a fan with an allergenic furnace type filter on it anyway), and .00 for replacement filters!

They’re both around the same price and both seem pretty good to me.
