A new study from Queen’s University in Ontario suggests fall allergies may be particularly bad for people who also have pet allergies.

Researchers exposed 123 people to ragweed. They found hayfever symptoms developed more quickly in those participants who already had pet or dust-mite allergies.

Dr. Anne Ellis said if you have ongoing symptoms from perennial allergies, your symptoms will develop much faster as soon as you add another allergen into the mix.

Dr. Ellis said, ideally, patients with animal allergies should find another home for their pets, or at least bar them from the bedroom.
