Is there a way to get stains out of clothing that have already been washed and dried?

My son has a new shirt that is cream and green colors. The first day he wore it he got spagetti sauce all over it. I washed it right away but never checked before I put it in the dryer. Is there any way I can still get the stain out? Is there a product I can use to prevent this from happening again?

    I pour laundry detergent on the stain and scrub with either the scrubby side of a sponge or a scrub brush. Let it sit and wash then check before drying. May need to repeat.

    Spray Shout on the garment and let set overnight. Then wash it in either Tide w/bleach or Era. You may have to wash it a couple of times, but the stain will come out eventually. I usually have to rewash all the children's clothes when Dad does the laundry because he forgets to look for stains and doesn't pre-treat them first.
