I feel your pain! I have definetely been there. As much as I love spring, allergies can make me miserable the whole time.

What else are you taking besides amoxicillin? You need some sort of an antihistamine/decongestant or allergy med. There are many over the counter meds you can try. Some times you have to play around until you find the one that works best for you. I use Clariton, Tavist, and some other plain label stuff. During the spring I always have to take more than one. Also, prescription Flonase is good.
