There is this scrub you can use in the shower (with the hot water!).. I think the brand is Tecnu or something like that. It's expensive, but amazing.

Great stuff, my son and friends use it. Personally I don't get PI, though am very careful since the immunity fades the more you touch it. My son is highly allergic and uses it. They also make wipes which may be easier on the trail.
The best advice is to be aware of where you're walking, know where it tends to grow and what it looks like. When you make camp, go around and ID all the PI and remember where it is, so you don't go stumbling into it at night.
Here's a pretty good quiz that will help you ID PI... though if you're not sure just try to stay away from it all.

I am no good at recognizing poison oak or poison sumac.
But when I get poison ivy, the best over the counter stuff for it I've found is teknu.
You can also use products made for removing poison ivy to get pepper oil off your hands. My go to after dealing with peppers is technu. It works like a charm and is safer for kitchen and food related uses.
