Hi Chelsea,
We use the First Years Bottle Sterilizer (<a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.learningcurve.com/product/detail/Y1441A2?locale=en_US)

</a>to sterlize our son's neb and mask. We wash it with hot sudsy water right after he uses it and sterlize. We leave in in the sterlizer with the lid on. Then we sterlize again about 1/2 before he is going to use it again the next day. Our CF Dr thought that was just as good as boiling them and it is a heck of a lot easier. The key is that it uses moist heat, which is a much greater tempature.
Mircowave bottle sterilizers, like the Avent Express are also supposed to work well.
