I would be very careful with all those things ... if they breath in too much it could be toxic.

I would open the windows, maybe put on a fan or something to get in more air flow. Better safe than sorry!

There is a chance that opening windows or putting on a fan might actually pull the fumes toward the birds. The best thing to do is to turn on (or install) a vent in the bathroom or at least open a window in the bathroom. At least that way stuff gets pulled into the bathroom rather than going out toward your birds.

It might be cheaper to get your sister a vanity table for her bedroom and then she can apply her hairspray and perfume in there instead of the joint bathroom......beside I am sure the floor gets gritty from the spray.

I have the best option yet. Just get rid of your sister. I'm sure a nice family somewhere would want her.
