Removing Dye Transfer on Colored Clothing

I washed colored laundry and had a blue towel in with them. Now all my colored laundry has blue spots on them. My children wear these clothes a lot. How can I get the blue dye out of my colored clothes?

You might try Rit dye remover. I had a pair of tan pants which were part of my work outfit, and got ink all over them from a ball point pen which smudged and ran. I used the Rit dye remover, thinking I had nothing to lose, and it turned the pants purple as it removed the ink, but when they were finished with the wash cycle (did it in washer according to washer directions), the pants were tan again, and the ink was gone.
