Q: Albuterol overuse ?

Hello, during the months of May, June and July my aathma kicks up to where I need to use my albuterol everyday.
My questions is, is one puff a day for this period too much? What sort of damage can it cause?
It seems to be the only thing that works. I do not tolerate long lasting steriod meds well and I am alredy on Singulair.
I usually take it once in the morning or in the evening and on some days I do take one puff in the morning and one more in the evening, but usually just on puff a day.
Any advice?
TIA
