I just ordered this big-ass bottle of it, thanks for the recommendation! I'll be putting it in a little spray bottle to carry on the course.

I've always found it at pharmacies. Just to warn you, it's not cheap. OH and also, watch out. they have a "moisturizing skin lotion" or something like that. You don't want the lotion, you want the good ol' liquid Tecnu.
Here is the Amazon link to the big bottle, which you may actually need since it sounds like you've got an infestation rolling in your home. Do try your local pharma first though, you may get lucky
Oh and finally, dish soap does work to wash the oil off, it's just a pain in the ass to use. Don't know if alcohol is at all effective at removing the oil, just think it would dry the seepy wounds up a bit.
jackpot! yall know everything! I found some on amazon. thanks!
I would get this.
I would avoid washing with it everyday though if you can. Tecnu works wonders but it removes the natural oils from your skin as well, so it really dries you out. If you use it often, invest in some good moisturizer. On second thought, I would put on moisturizer (or sunscreen) every morning to help prevent the poison oak oils from soaking into your skin--it can't hurt at least.

I have yet to use it but I have ordered it. I hear great things.
Found out a month or two ago I am definitely allergic to poison oak. It looked like I rolled in the shit naked. it was EVERYWHERE. Balls on fire.
I take a shower immediately after digging my trails in certain areas now.
