Depending on where the rash is you could get ya some solvent (acetate) and dab it on and that will dry it right up for ya. Best stuff to use on poison ivy.

If it has just started (small bumps) get in the shower with one of those green scotch pad things wash the area with the scrubber (not too hard) get out of the shower, dry off & pour rubbing alcohol on the exposed bumps (will only burn for a minute or so, don't be a wuss) then rub gold bond powder on them & they will dry right up. You have to catch it fairly early for this one but it absolutely works. Two - three of these treatments & you are done & you dont have to go see a doc.

soak it in Coal Oil, then snub out all of your cigars direcetly onto the afflicted area. You'll be up and about in no-time.

Well, thanks for the advice everyone. Didn't get any poison ivy anyway! The prop was broken on the boat so i couldn't get out to in-laws fishing spot. So I wasn't exposed-to poison ivy and the in-law! Yesssss!!!!
Was looking forward to the stamping out a cigar on myself though.

I always use dish washing liquid. Someone told me about it a few years ago and boy does it work. Just use it in the shower after being exposed to the allergen. Lather up and rinse. Works well!

use Byo-Gon, kelp and aloe base product, wet a paper towel and lay over area, works great on sunburns too.

Go to the Doctor and get a shot. It will be cheaper in the long run and he will be feeling better by the end of the day.
