Well outside there is little you can do unless you wear a mask-however in doors you can do the following
1. remove rugs and curtains in your room(they hold dust.
2. Put up blinds on your windows and wipe them down weekly
3. Buy pillow covers - they will keep out mites.
4. Buy a case to seal up your bed in. Get a case that can be wiped down
5. buy a non allergenic blanket
have a pair of comfortable clothes that you can put on as soon as you get home. before going into your room take a shower and put those clean clothes on. leave a hamper in the bathroom to store that days dirty clothes.
it will cost you money at first but the relief you get will pay for it in the end

First, you should talk with your doctor again and get some treatment for your allergy if you haven't already. The doctor may also refer you to a specialist.
There are many different medicines that doctors may use to help people with your condition. Some medicines are swallowed as pills or liquids, some are inhaled, and some medicines are injected into one of your muscles or veins. For most people, inhaled medicines are used first because they start working very fast, usually in less than five minutes! They also don't have too many side effects. This is because inhaled medicines go right into the lungs and not into other parts of the body. You should consult the doctor because he or she can monitor how the treatment is going and whether it is helping or not. There can be side affects.
Next, ask your doctor about getting an air purifier for the dust allergy. Perhaps, he can recommend one. The air cleaner filters out the dust mites and other impurities in the air. Depending how well you become, this may be enough. You may have to consider removing carpeting from your residence and eliminating objects that gather dust readily. This is a big step, so you should consult your doctor regularly to see how your condition and treatment is progressing.
Finally, if you do get asthma, it is a condition that can be be treated if not cured. Research is constantly going on in this field. You should continue to get more information on the subject and not be afraid.

Foods or supplements (Maxepa) containing Omega 3 fatty acids worth a try. But it may take several weeks to show the result.
New antihistamines are not sedative and have a better side effects profile. You can try Ebastine, Rupatadine, Desloratadine, Fexofenadine, Levecetirizine etc...
Try to find a drug that suits you. Side effects are temporary. You will be able tolerate it in a few weeks. You can try glucocorticoids if you have asthma. Ebastine is good for asthma because it prevents from histamine induced bronchoconstriction.
I am currently using Ebastine 20mg + Steroid Nasal Spray. I had some problems in the beginning but it is okay now.
Some say that Vitamin C is good. But taking large amounts of Vitamin C may irritate your bowels.
Consult an allergy specialist and you have to take the medications for a long time. Start it before the spring comes.
Allergy shots or immunotherapy is another option. Talk to your doctor about it.

Hi,
dust mites are the cause of dust allergy. Firstly if you are serious, you have to rip up all the carpet in your home. Replace with lino or tiles that can be wet mopped. Next, buy a dustmite spray and spray all your mattresses and lounges with it and then vaccuum it back off. This will suck up all the little dustmite eggs and poo bits that you sleep with every night. Next, you can buy dustmite covers for your mattresses, pillows and doonas for extra protection.
You should see your doctor so that you can go on a good asthma preventative medicine and you need to be taking this regularly even when you think you are well. You need to come up with an asthma plan as well so that you know what to do in the event of a bad attack.
Hope you feel better soon.
