Wow! Try degreaser, however petroleum jelly is very thick and hard to remove. Maybe some of the oxidizing cleaners will do the trick. Good luck

........................
First of all, never let your son play with vaseline, ever!
Give it to his Dad. He know what to do.
........................
Heres how?
Take a plastic knife or a butter knife and scrape over the stained area. Bring up as much of the Vaseline as possible.
Nest, use a paper towel or a cloth, wet the cloth with rubbing alcohol and dab at the stained area. You will see a glossy coating and the alcohol will break down the oils in the Vaseline to remove it. Continue this at least three or four times and then go to the next step, as you might not be able to see all the stain when it is wet.
Make a spray mixture of one-cup warm water and a tablespoon of clear bleach free dish liquid. Spray this on the stained area and blot with a clean paper towel to bring up more of the Vaseline.
If you still have a stain, spray the area with peroxide and let it dry. This will break up the stain further. Repeat as needed, letting the clothes dry between applications to completely remove any remaining stains.

I'll bet anything your son is under the age of ten.
Make that outfit "play clothes" and wait a couple of months.
He'll outgrow them.
In the meantime, hide the Vaseline.

Try washing the clothes with just a couple tablespoons of dawn dish washing detergent. dawn works great at removing the grease from them. and use hot water to wash

I know it's dish soap but Dawn takes the grease off mechanics hands. Pre-treat the clothes with it then add it to the wash as well, about the same amount as normal.......LATER

try soaking it in detergent water overnight, and set it to wash the next day.

Put a little "Goo-Gone" or any type product in the laundry with it.
