Smelly clothes

Hi Everyone,
I haven't been here for a while. I am quite busy with my 2 little peanuts turning 6 months tomorrow!!!
WEll, the reason I am writing is my son is drooling "A LOT" which is fine and to be expected at this age. However, the daycare puts the clothes in a little plastic bag and I forget one cute outfit in one. Now, the outfit smells horrible. I can't have my son wearing it. BUt I love this outfit. I washed it 3 times already and it still smells.
Any trick to get to wash the smell away. I am desperate... :o(

try putting it in water with baking soda... allthough I'm not really sure if that would have some coloring issues but it removes oders very well just don't leave it in very long

Try useing mouthwash. Put a cap full in the wash with the outfit. I do this alot with wet towels and clothes. You can also put it in a spray bottle and use it as an air freshener or on carpet that has got wet. When my sink was leaking and we could not find the leak...I sprayed it on the moldy smelling carpet and the oder went away after about a day(and we were able to find the problem).

You can always try Oxiclean and then put the item outside for the sun to dry it.
