The poison in ivy sumac and poison oak is all the same. it is an oil called urushiol..

I agree that dmso can take it all over the body pretty quick.....Personally I would not use dmso in this case.. the itching does cause a secondary infection that CS would help with handily..

I had poison ivy last summer and used colloidal silver
and DMSO.  I just applied each at different times,
since I hadn't heard about mixing them.  I was scared
of the DMSO since I'd never used it and didn't apply
it more than twice a day. I think the blisters dried
faster than usual, but the whole episode still took
two weeks to clear up.
