    @2post. Don't, at least not together. Baking Soda (sodium bicarbonate) as an alkali and abrasive followed by neutralising with vinegar (from the acetic acid component) and then rinsing may be effective for cleaning surfaces, but combining them up front for washing clothes would just give a sodium acetate mix. The fizzing is not a measure of the efficacy for cleaning.
    The better choice is Washing Soda (sodium carbonate), significantly higher pH, or maybe some combination of washing soda with sodium percarbonate if you're into refining a homemade cleaner blend.
