Poisom ivy?

hey just wondering any quick remedies for poison ivy i heard bleach/clorox... ive been scrathing it open and putting alcohol on it
Answer:
I have severe reactions to poison ivy and the best thing I've ever used is Ivarest ...worked great and fast dried it out pretty much over night...got it at local drug store. As for home remedies a paste of water and baking soda will dry it out.

stop, stop, stop! Scratching poison ivy open will cause it to spread!
Also DO NOT pour bleach on it!
Go to the store and get some over the counter poison ivy stuff. (Calamine lotion, etc) They are in with 1st aid supplies.
My wife got amazing good results taking Hyland Poison Oak/Ivy pills as directed. Homeopathic Rhus Tox also comes well recommended.
Go "old school",and use Calomine lotion.
You are going to need an ocean;
of calamine lotion.
You'll be scratching like a hound.
The minute you start to mess around, Poison Ivy. Wash it, swab it down with calamine lotion, keep using it until the symptoms go away. You may not want to put that alcohol on, it will sting like heck.
