Any recommendations? Or better to go through GP?

You can only test for iGE allergies not none IGE allergies.

What is happening with your children?

Only go through GP. Immediate IgE type allergies tested for via blood tests or skin prick test. For non-IgE delayed type reactions elimination and reintroduction is the only way. There are no tests. Any online, high street, hair sample etc tests are not valid.
