What are the effects and treatment of burnt diesel oil on a 5 year old's skin?

My 5 year old daughter stepped into a bucket of old burnt diesel oil. We scrubbed her with Dawn, but her legs and feet are still stained black and she has severe itching. We gave her benadryl, put aloe vera gel on her, and did an oatmeal bath(all to no avail).|||Jesus! Get her to a doctor or hospital! Don%26#039;t be asking us!


Her skin could peel! Get there FAST!|||have you tried using a baby oil or mineral oil ? if you havent thats how my friend who is a mechanic gets it off his hands and arms.. sometimes he said he uses paint thinner but i dont know how that would help her irritated skin!! try applying the oil for a while that wash with some soap in a bath. you can try callomine lotion for the itching. i dont know if that stuff can be toxic through her skin i would call a doc just in case. she might need a medication. i hope she gets better!!
