Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
This is very rare to have so much swelling of the scrotum by poison ivy as you have explained that has caused a swelling of the size of large grapefruit and the penis also has been been buried.

I would advise you the following:
Rush to the Er as you need injections of the steroids, antihistamine, need a clinical evaluation and examination and surgical incisions if required.
Also need the confirmation of the diagnosis and investigations of the blood and urine and ultrasonography to rule out other problems.

I find this answer helpful
