Suggest Treatment For Cough And Fever In A Child

My six year old has a severe cough that is getting worse. She has fever with it . She has asthma that is cough related, we have used her nebulizer with the albuteral. She also uses zyertc for the every day allergies. I am taking her to the doctor tomorrow, but I need some advice. This is a continual thing. She gets better for a while then it starts all over again. No appette, tired and irriatable. She has been in the hospital twice this past year with pnemonia. Were told that before the asthma diagnosis that she had chronic broncitious. I need to know what to do and get a routine to keep her well. SHe lives with me part time and her father the part. He is a smoker
