You have to deal with that as you have no choice. Fees are everyone's problem now. Just few hours ago, my fees for standard transaction was set to around 160,000 satoshis IIRC, that's almost $4 and that is close to the usual fees Im paying for fiat transfers.

To save fees, send them in bulk or much as possible just transfer if you need to use it. With the current status, I think somehow it removes all micro transactions in the network.
