I would see an allergist and have a series of allergy test run, sounds like an allergy that is progressing.

It sounds like you may have developed an allergy that is getting worse with your exposure.  Have you changed anything? Acquired a new pet?  Try removing new items and look for improvements.  If it continues, you may want to see an allergist to have them help you figure out what it is.  If Zyrtec only helped a little, you may want to try a different allergy medicine such as Claritin.  Some work better than others with certain people.  Good luck!
