My advice to you is this: Make sure you can take an allergy tablet suitable to your needs. Also, I find that the following grooming tools greatly reduces the amount of shedding and that smell. The shed ender, and a battery operated dog brush which helps keep the dog smelling fresh. There is a name for this brush, but I cannot remember what it is called. When it comes to bathing, I usually give mine a bath whenever they get dirty, too itchy, or even to smelly. My favorite dog shampoo is Fur so Fresh. It has this aroma that makes the dog smell good for days afterward. Most of that smell is likely to come from your dogs than your cats. So they are the main ones you should tackle. As for the shedding, if brushing doesn't seem to be helping, it could be their diet or something in their genes. You can try picking up medicine to help that. In fact, Pet Smart has them available, either in the form of shampoos or something they can eat with their food. There's even an allergen and dander reducing shampoo. As for the smell, yes.. definitely try Arm and Hammer for Pets baking soda. Leave it on the carpet for a couple hours. Use Febreeze. And get an AirWick plug in with the refills. This worked wonders for me and it lasts about two to three weeks. As for an air purifier, if you cannot afford one of those more expensive ones, I suggest trying out True Air purifier. I did, and I was very happy with the results. If you can try to get a vacuum cleaner that is specifically to the needs of pet hair. It should say Pet Hair right on it. All in all, as long as you do what works best for you and your pets, keeping your house smelling fresh shouldn't be a problem. I know how you feel about the pet dander and with allergies.

Before you vacuum, sprinkle Arm & Hammer pet fresh on the carpet. You can always use Fe-breeze after wards as well and always on the furniture. Change the air filter to your heating/cooling often. An air purifier that will actually work well is pricey. Don't be sold by cheaper ones. I was happy with my Oreck. It just has a collection cell that you rinse off vs filters that you have to buy. Also, to keep litter odors at bay, our littler box is housed inside a cedar chest with a hole cut into the side for entry. It's a great way to reduce smells. Bottom line, being a good house keeper will keep your home smelling fresh. Vacuum the house every day. Before you vacuum, sprinkle Arm & Hammer pet fresh on the carpet.

You can pretty much use any air spray ;) yes an air puffer would work also use one of those glade plug-in’s they really do work. You can pretty much use any air spray ;)
