I use a broadleaf herbicide called Crossbow. It doesn't kill grass but will stop the poison oak. If it's real thick you may have to use a second application to get the leaves you missed the first time. I've used Crossbow for about 10 years now on cutover land that's been cleared for pasture. It's a great product. Weathermax Roundup mixed 1 qt. per 15 gal. of water will work well also. But it also kills everything that it's sprayed on. It's water proof and don't have to worry with rain washing it off. It's safer to use also. Again it may need a second application depending on how thick poison oak is. Another is Spike. It's in the pellet form and kills the soil for about 5 years. You have to be careful with it around trees that you want to keep. If the roots of a tree are growing where you use Spike it can kill it too. Even if it's 50 feet away. Hope this helps and I'm sure there are other herbicides out there that will do the job. These are just some I've used.
