If you're being singled out for punishment, make whomever is in charge of the covenants aware of it.

Or leave.

there are restrictive covenants in our neighborhood. Which my realtor neglected to inform us of.

That is very difficult to believe.

Not hard for me to believe at all.....I had the same thing happen to me, too. And those covenants were presented to me AFTER I'd signed for the property....at closing. My understanding (in the town I lived in) that once a neighbor is allowed to bypass those covenants, then they can't enforce the rules. Check with an atty..(as much as I hate to advise this)....because you have TWO problems. 1) Are you going to have to abide by those covenants and 2) what recourse for the neighbors making those comments online........

If you have a yes to the 1st one and none to the 2nd one, then I'd be tempted to put the house up for sale. It isn't worth it to put up with that carp. (misspelling intended)
