Kittens Still Sneezing - Advice Needed

Archer (10-week-old kitten) is still sneezing a LOT. I haven't heard Ozzy
sneezing lately even though he's in the same room with his brother. Tayla
(3-year-old cat) is still sneezing, though not as much as Archer - but her
right eye is "weeping".

I just got off the phone with my vet (the sainted Dr. French ;), and he
said that they all have a herpes virus (which is what he diagnosed 10 days
ago). He said he'll going to prescribe another round of Clavamox for them
for me to pick up this afternoon, but the Clavamox is only given to stave
off secondary bacterial infections they might get because their immune
systems have been weakened by the herpes virus. He said he would leave it
up to me whether or not I want to give them another round of Clavamox, but
if they are otherwise healthy - playing, eating, and drinking - which they
are, it is not *imperative* that they get the Clavamox. He said he could
prescribe them nose or eye drops to take care of symptoms if they should
become bad, but that that won't get rid of the virus either. He said the
virus will just have to play itself out and that it could quite a while
before they are all symptom-free.

Dr. French also said that, even with strenuous cleaning (I wash their bowls
with hot, soapy water and we "wash" our hands well with Purell Hand
Sanitizer every time we leave on of their rooms), the herpes virus is
airborne and highly contagious and the fact that Demi, Jessie, and Sammy are
not showing any symptoms after 11 days in the same house is very good news
(I'm guessing that they have very healthy immune systems from being indoor
only, premium food fed, and are "throwing off" the shedded virus without
becoming symptomatic).

Anyway, does anyone have any thoughts on this? Do you think I should go
ahead and treat them with another round of Clavamox, or as long as they're
otherwise healthy just let the virus run its course?
