Here is an old post (fun but highly speculative) that touches of the
mechanism by which Voldemort may have been able to accomplish this
task. It not exactly the same but ties in nicely with your theory.

If was originally proposted by Tonks, then expanded on by me.

bboyminn:

Is this 'Kill all the Blood' idea in Lexicon Forums or is it an Essay.
Could you give us some more details to help us find it?

Since you say 'all blood relatives', doesn't that imply that somehow
the Potters, and Voldemort's mother are somehow related? Didn't JKR
say something about Harry and Voldemort NOT being related? Perhaps
that was with regard to a specific potential relationship (like
father, or uncle).

bboyminn:

I wonder if this wasn't just JKR's humorous take off on the old
beefsteak over a blackeye idea. It's cold so it's soothing, plus the
blood stains the bruise red thereby helping hide the injury. Although,
I can't deny that the Dragon meat may have had some healing proterties
that go beyond the standard beefsteak on a blackeye.

Just a few thoughts.
