Along the line of duplicate exchange fees: If one is a member of a professional firm, thereby already paying pro fees through the firm, but has a backup retail quote source which also charges pro fees is there any allowance made by the exchanges in order that pro fees are not charged twice?

You need to check with your firm. They need to do the paperwork for the firm as a whole (not just you) which prevents duplicate fees by the exchanges. This needs to be done by your firm on a monthly basis and if the proper paperwork isn't done, then you'll get the duplicate fees.
