For a large area, there's nothing like old-fashioned turpentine, available in quarts and gallons at hardware stores. It is a close relative of pine sap, and erases spots promptly. I wouldn't use it on pets, and definitely don't put a rag soaked in turpentine in your back pocket!
Gasoline would work, but not for indoors due to the
extreme explosion hazard.
For the hands, I've heard that mayonaisse will work.
For the pets, I've sprinkled talcum powder on their feet. The powder absorbs the sap, dries it, and the sap gradually wears off. It's possible any powder will work. I've heard that cats don't manage that treatment so well.
Dogs don't seem to mind (My Favorite Thing!!!).
