A Few: Asthma should be treated by a qualified physician whenever possible and if it is not responding to medicine then you need to see a pediatric allergist to help you. You can try a humidifier in his bedroom, a HEPA filter as well to clean the air. There are not really other things besides medicine that will help.

See allergist: Asthma is not a benign disease and you need to bring him to an allergist soon to get his asthma under control. Do not use any humidifier since it may promote mold and house dust mite growth. Do not delay and forget about home remedy right now.
