If you're okay with sticking things up your nose, start with a neti pot - just a buffered saline sinus wash. It gets all those pollen grains and other nasties out of there, helps relieve congestion, and generally makes me feel better. Drugstores nowadays have a selection of three or four different types of sinus rinses that are marketed nationwide.
It is totally, utterly, nauseously disgusting to irrigate when I have a sinus infection. But that stuff is best washed down the sink than festering in my sinuses, even if I have to look at it for a few seconds.
ETA: if your allergies are debilitating, look into immunotherapy (allergy shots). That is homoeopathy (or as I've been told, technically homotoxicology), even though an MD/DO allergist will never admit it. The best experience I've ever had with modern Western medicine has been in allergy treatment.
