What Is The Solution For Stuffy Nose In Six Month Old?

My six month old has had a stuffy nose for 5 weeks. He also has a low-grade fever from time to time. He was recently diagnosed with ear infection and is currently taking amoxicillin. Are there any remedies for stuffy nose and is it normal for him to have it for 5 weeks? I've tried saline drops, steam shower, humidifier and vapor rub.
