Colors bled in the wash... anything I can do??

Just back from WDW last night. In a hurried effort to get all my wash done, I inadvertently washed a new pink hoodie with my darks and the pink color bled off onto many of our clothes. This includes new t-shirts we just got at Disney, as well as the clothes we wear most in our daily lives (these are the clothes we took on vacation).

I have them soaking in cold water mixed with color safe bleach, and sprayed Oxi Clean stain remover on them first. Anything else I should try if this doesn't work? I read distilled white vinegar may work as well?

Thanks all! Kicking myself for this one.
 
I have used "Rit Color Remover" before and it worked like a charm :goodvibes

Here it is on Amazon - but I found it in my local grocery store in the laundry detergent section:

You might try it. Wishing you good luck!

Also might check this Carbona. The info says:

First aid for laundry. Corrects color bleed and mixed load accidents. Removes unwanted dye stains from whites and colorfast fabrics caused by a color run accident when dye from 1 garment bleeds onto another garment.
