Get down to solving this problem as quickly as possible. First try to wash these color undergarments immediately (as I understand it did not help you).

This method is good for white/light clothes:
1. Mix in equal amounts (for example, 1 teaspoon each) salt, citric acid, starch and washing powder or laundry soap.
2. Add some water and stir. It should be like gruel.
3. Apply this mix from the wrong side to the spoiled parts and leave overnight.
4. Then wash.

Some info:
Fill a clean tub or sink with 1 quart of warm water, 1 tablespoon of ammonia and 1/2 teaspoon of liquid dish soap or laundry detergent. Soak in the solution for up to 30 minutes, then rinse well with water. If the stain remains after the first soak, try a second method by adding 1 quart of warm water and 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to a tub. Soak in the vinegar solution for up to one hour. Rinse with lukewarm water and let the garment dry.

If the stain persists, and your garment is bleach-safe, dilute one part chlorine or all-fabric powdered bleach in four parts water.
Soak in the bleach solution for up to 15 minutes, then rinse with warm water and let dry. If this does not remove the stain, do not bleach again, as doing so will only weaken the fabric.
Set Dye Stains: Dab the dye stain thoroughly with rubbing alcohol. Using light strokes, blot the stained fabric with a soft-bristle brush.
Blot the stain with an absorbent pad. As you blot, the pad will absorb some of the dye. If the first pad absorbs too much dye, you may need to wet another absorbent pad with rubbing alcohol and continue blotting the stain. Repeat this until the stain disappears or stops fading. Mix a color-remover product with water according to the package instructions if the stain persists. Rinse the stain with the color-remover solution, then rinse again with clean water. Let dry.
