Sorry if I missed something but why not try the BEG spray? I did it and it was great. It wasn't painful at all. A LOT of stuff came out - and while a little gross, it showed me it was working. I did it in combo with Xlear.
Also, has he been evaluated by an ENT? There may a something structural in his nose or sinuses that's impeding drainage. Like a deviated septum, swollen turbinates...
The neti pot never did much for me and I think it would be really hard to do with a small child. You have to lean over to get the angle just right or else it's not good.

Jacobs mom, anti parasitics actually do help with sinus issues/parasites. Has he started doing them yet? They helped me, but viruses every winter made it hell (marcons).
I think marcons is tough on people in the winter especially if a virus slips in. Some people herx on the BEG spray though, yet for others it is not bad. He is just two though, I'm sure you know what herxes are like for him. The BEG spray did burn my nose at first but for me it was livable. Not sure for a 2 year old though. Follow your gut/doc.
I agree with you on the biotoxin sickness. I believe that is what autism actually is: heavy metals, parasites, lyme and company. Hang in there!

And I take him to a Himalayan salt mine room.
Look for salt inhaler at Amazon.com. This is a tube of dry salt crystals. You inhale air through the tube, which picks up salt ions and carries them deep into the lungs. Just like a salt mine, but more convenient.
When you get one, show him how to breathe using his abdominal muscles. You don't exhale through the tube, as the salt picks up moisture from your breath.
As for the sinus congestion, I noticed that when I used near infrared light on my face, any congestion in my sinuses cleared up.
I have a SOTA LightWorks, which uses LED's to give off light with either a 660 wavelength or 880 wavelength. This machine is FDA approved, but is not near as strong as the professional models. (Also much less expensive!)
When I applied the light paddle to my face to heal pimples, I noticed my sinuses would clear. Maybe this would be helpful for your son.

I irrigate once or twice a day with a netipot filled with distilled water, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 drop of baby shampoo (breaks up biofilm) and one of either: a 1/2 packet of xilitol, OR 5 Citridrops (kills biofilm and mold), OR 1 teaspoon of Manuka Honey mixed well in the water (kills biofilm and mold). I suppose you could combine all these, but I rotate them.. The honey is really nice and soothing!
This routine above seems to be helping me if I do it consistently every day. Also-- try never to swallow nasal mucous because its just ingesting the bad stuff and probably contributing to biofilm in the intestines.
Baby shampoo and manuka honey in the netipot have helped many people (see Boogerdoctor website) http://www.boogordoctor.com.
But don't use more than two drops of shampoo because too much will sting! The lather does slowly break up biofilm in the sinuses and the Manuka honey kills the bad stuff.
Good luck to all those with sinus issues here--- it can be almost as bad as Lyme.
