Dust mite allergy?: Certainly consider this is your son is allergic to house dust mites and spends a lot of time on that furniture. But if your son is allergic to house dust mites first cover the bedding - all pillows, mattress & comforter in miteproof encasements & remove carpeting throughout the house. If that doesn't work think leather sofa. And don't neglect allergy immunotherapy.
