It's been killing me, and the salicylic acid products I've found so far don't seem to be doing too much.

Not if it's a serious allergy. Proactive is full of benzoyl peroxide. So I wouldn't suggest it. Try lookin at the clean and clear website. They have an acne treatment face wash that uses a different type of acne treater.

The products you are using, are they Salsylic Acid or Benzoyl peroxide? BP can be VERY drying. I personally like SA better. Salsylic acid it really good. It is in almost all acne washes. Benzoyl Peroxide is too drying for me! Try finding a face lotion with SA in it. Clean and Clear has a good moisturizer with SA and it helps keep pimples at bay. It is only about $5 a bottle and lasts about 2 months and you can get it at your local store. I have used this in the past and it works well. Personally, I use Biore products (which you get over the counter. Their products range from $5-$10). They are harsh on pimples, but not on your face.
Personally, Proactive didn't work for me. I have been using Biore products for over a year and I hardly ever break out! Occasionally I will get one or two, but nothing bad. I use Biore Ice Cleanser for acne and Biore warming facial scrub every morning for blackheads (This stuff works. I notcied a DRASTIC difference in my blackheads being GONE within 2 weeks) . And then 3-4 day s a week I use Biore purging pore cream scrub. For body acne I use Neutrogena acne body wash I never break out on my body. It gets 110 in summer so sweat in inevitably, yet I never break out. Give it a try. All of it is cheap too. About $5-10 depending on what you buy! I think you will just need to experiment with products until you find what works for you. Remember, it can take 1 month for products to fully begin working! Good Luck!

I had bad acne nothing over the counter worked for me - my doctor has me using cetphyl for my face in the morning and night that i bought in a store - and I have a script for Ortho-Nutragena that I put on in the morning after I wash my face - I has worked great and there is no peroxide or salicylic acid -

Ohhh that sucks that you're allergic to benzoyl... :( Have you gone to your dermatologist yet? I know you say you have mild acne... but perhaps a dermatologist could suggest a safe product for you.
I reccomend Oxy wash (it's a bit manly smelling now, but still works well,) and Cetaphil wash. Both can be found in stores without a perscription.

While it took little less than two months for me to really see a difference, my acne, blackheads and whole lot of other skin problems I had such as eczema had completely cleared! It was totally amazing...
Get Rid Of Acne Permanently?

A natural way in order to get rid of ache, and believe me, my daughter is alergic to everything, is hot water. Take a hot shower, or put a wet, hot washcloth over you face. This opens the pores up and then use a regular facial scrub with no fragrance (alergy reasons). When you are done, rinse your face with cold water and it closes up the pores!

Get a facial. The aesthetician can use products that you can use. I know a place that only uses organic products.
Body Shop had a neat little tea tree oil pen too.
