You need to go to the store and get some itching cream for poison ivy. If that duzn't work, go to the doctor and they can give you some ideas for some cream, or they will give you a prescription for something that will definitely make it go away!
buy some ointment at the store and try not to scratch I know its erristible but it will only make it worse or aveeno has a bathing treatment you can try its for poisin ivy and some other stuff. I usually just apply an oatmeal paste and it goes away pretty fast
lye soap,ivy rid,steroids,really depends how bad you have it.
There is a product out called ivy dry and it works far better than calamine lotion. there is a wash and a creme that comes with it.
Go swimming in the ocean. If not possible try oatmeal baths. Or ask you pharmacist.
dont scratch, wash your hands after you touch the infected area and just constantly, caladryl to stop the itching
TecNu is great stuff that is what electric companies and loggers use when they are in ivy all day.
Wear gloves and an air filter when you yank it out.
