How to clean this ???

I have had this cover for about 1 1/2 years now and the edge closest to my face has turned yellow. I know why, and theres not much I can do about it. I have severe cystic acne which if not annoying enough creates enough oil to lubricate a small two stroke engine. Unfortunantely at night all of my linens and mainly this very expensive down comforter absorb most of it. Not to mention it being transfered to the paint on my walls. So my question is how the heck can I try and clean this. I have washed it before to no avail it is still here. I have rubbed it down with vinegar thinking that may break up the oils but it doesn't. I'm scared to use bleach for not being sure what it will do to the innards.
And for some reasons I'm having problems loading problems so I will give links to photobucket in a second.

Try soaking it overnight in Oxi-clean, my wife does it to the grandkids clothes and it takes out formula stains.

I'm guessing white might not be the optimal color for your bedding. I would get something darker and just make it a do over.

All colors are ruined by the oil. Even the dark navy blue, hardly distinguishable between black, has clear indications from where I sleep. The cover was a gift to me and due to my being naturally hot booded I use it only during the winter; the only time I use anything larger than a coverlet.

Try the oxi-clean. We have the spray stuff and it works really well.
