Your allergies are probably due to dust mites! You should vacuum your mattress to control the dust mites. Since you have severe allergies, I think it would be a good idea to purchase a plastic mattress cover and pillow case covers. The are also ecological friendly sprays to help control these pests. Good luck!

The best way is to use a Carpet cleaner and some good disenfectant and it should kill anything living on your matress
and get rid of dust.

When in doubt, consult my favorite Diva of Homemaking, Martha Stewart:
