Sunscreen Stains on Clothing

Can someone please help me with orange sunscreen stains on clothing? I'm finding the stains after washing. They don't appear until the clothing has been washed. I called Coppertone and they said it's the Avobenzone reacting with iron levels in our water. I don't understand why this hasn't been a problem in the past.

I've tried Oxyclean, Biz and now I'm going to try The Works like someone suggested. I'm ruining clothing left and right. The Blue Lizard Sensitive stuff works but my son breaks out from it so he can't use it. Plus it's a pain to apply and EVERYTHING sticks to it. I did just order some Trigger Spray Coppertone, the Coppertone people said it's one that doesn't have the Avobenzone. Anyone else having this issue this year and not in the past?
