If the treatments ruin the finish of the dresser I suggest a trip to Home Despot or a lumber store which caters to cabinetmakers and serious hobbyists. Or talk to a friendly furniture refinisher. Bring a sample of the wood such as dresser drawer if you can. They will be able to tell you what stain to use to match what’s already there. #100 grit sandpaper, sealer and the right stain only take a few hours to apply. I recommend at least two coats with enough time to dry between.
