Daddybob,
Lavender essential oil might do the same thing, with less objectionable odor. I personally cannot stand the smell of Tea Tree oil, it is really unbearable to me, though many people don't seem to mind it. Lavender oil is miraculous for treating any kind of burn, too, and insect bites and stings.

This is the fastest cheapest thing I've ever seen for
poison ivy: TEA TREE OIL! It works because it is a
powerful solvent and dissolves the alkaloids.

Downside: The smell, extremely aromatic, and tends to
get almost stinking after a few hours. Alternate with
DMSO after a few hours, and it's not as bad.
