I found this great mask online. It was also recommended by some dude from the Lung Assoc. so it's good. Here's its stats:

N95 Health Care Particulate Respirator and Surgical Mask

NIOSH-certified, unique flat-fold/three panel design, highest level of fluid and splash resistance and reduces wearer's exposure to airborne particles. Bacterial filtration efficiency greater than 99%. Latex free.

The best price I could find was at:
<a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.allheart.com/3m1870.html
">http://www.allheart.com/3m1870.html
</a>$21.99 ea (per box of 20)

These masks are not usually carried in stores because there is not a big demand for them, so you have to go to special medical supply stores or websites.

Update: Lucky the winds shifted again and the smoke is gone for now. However, the fire is still burning, so I will keep a watch on it and my mask handy. Thanks everyone for the advice!!!

I'm a noncfer, but a few friends of mine have had it. What I found unusual was that one of them, instead of wearing the surgical masks you get for the floor, crowds, and such, always chose a cartridge respirator, similar to <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.coopersafety.com/item/100931/3M-Organic-Vapor-P95-Respirator-Kit.aspx">http://www.coopersafety.com/it...95-Respirator-Kit.aspx</a> .

To me these seem way too heavy to be wearing for immune use, but I wonder about the brush fires. I've never worn one, so I don't know.
