What do you suggest if my neighbors schnauzers cause my allergies to get really bad?

Hard To Say: More information would be helpful. The best treatment is avoidance, but if you are not taking a medication for allergies, pre-medicating with an OTC antihistamine like Allegra (fexofenadine) or Zyrtec could help. Don't touch the dogs if you can help it. See an allergist and they can help you explore other therapies including immunotherapy to desensitize you to dog.
