Yes: Rsv can be one of th causes of croup. The nebulizer is beneficial. Homeopathic spongia can also help with that barky cough...As can a cough medicine called chestal (both of which you can find at the health food store).

Yes: RSV is a viral infection which may recur. It can cause croup, which affects the upper airway. The cough may be due to mucus plugs, constriction and inflammation of small airways in the lung. This infection is called bronchiolitis. Approximately 25% of children with RSV will respond to albuterol. Many of those children have a family history of asthma, or a history of a prior wheezing episode.
