Use hydrogen peroxide instead of oxyclean mess. I add a shot to my liquid detergent (homemade) before I start the washer. A big bottle of peroxide is less than a dollar and gets the funk smell out of my husband's golf shirts. We have a front-loading washer and I just use homemade detergent and white vinegar instead of fabric softener. Would I lie to you, child? I also use vinegar in the dishwasher instead of jet dry. Try it!

This is the website I used when I made mine the first time. I make liquid and like you used Fels Naptha soap. I've made two batches so far. It really is MUCH cheaper and works just as well. It has taken everything we've thrown at it, and well, that can be a lot! My hubs being a paramedic occasionally means blood and bodily fluids...not to mention whatever the almost 2 and 5 yr old come up with!! Definitely worth the change :)
