Allergy remedies??

Our son has allergies. I used to have him on Children's Claritin every day as he showed symptoms, but I haven't used it in months. We are trying to avoid meds with questionable ingredients and go a more natural route. When he spends a day playing outside, the next morning he wakes up with swollen, puffy, red, watery, itchy eyes and sneezing. I do an "allergy bomb" with essential oils (lavender, lemon, and peppermint) on his feet when he shows these symptoms, and also apply 1 drop of lavender diluted in 1 teaspoon of coconut oil around his eyes (I was told this helps for allergy-induced conjunctivitis). Is there anything else I can be doing or giving him? The above remedies don't really seem to be clearing things up.
