It take about 2 weeks for an existing rash to heal, which isn't so bad. It can take 2 weeks for all of the reaction to manifest and that's not so good. It's about a month total to rid yourself of poison ivy. Tell him I feel bad for him. I've had reactions in the past, but after last time I am terrified of being exposed again!
I can see the chlorine drying the blisters. I imaine it's probably good at disolving the oil too so if there's any lingering on the body it will help get it off.
