Relieve Itch from Poison Ivy and Poison Oak

After washing the area with soap and water, wipe down that area of the skin with a mix of 1/2 chlorine bleach and 1/2 water and rinse with water. Helps to remove the plant oil that creates all that itching.

RE: Relieve Itch from Poison Ivy and Poison Oak

My husband uses liquid dishwasher detergent which is probably very close to what you've indicated. Though I haven't had the need to try it, he says it stings for a moment or two when you first apply it, but it dries it out in a few days rather than suffering with it for weeks.
