I am also allergic to deer fur, however my reaction isn't as bad. I'm a pharmacist and I use a prescription allergy medication (ie. Allegra, Zyrtec etc). I take it every morning before going out into the field, it'll prevent the allergic reaction from happening if you come into contact w/ deer fur throughout the day. Benadryl also works well, one drawback though, it makes most people drowsy . . . not much fun when you need to be wide awake. Hope the advice helps.
