Brenden,

Poison is the worse thing in the summer. You poor thing. I see your using Clorox, so I'll share....

I've become terribly allergic to the poison plants as I've gotten older.

The only thing works for me is to take a bottle of bleach in the shower with me, with a white wash cloth.
put some bleach on the cloth and really rub the area I have poison at or came in contact with poison plants.
Then rinse my skin well.... other wise I get covered in no time... must scratch at night.

Be sure not to rub any bleach near your eyes though...

It will take several times, of bleaching if your good and covered, and you will feel some heat...
But it will dry it out and kill the poison...
