I agree wrap the outside of the house depending on what you mean by "The exterior of the house has the vapor barrier wrapped on it also."

if the vapour barrier is on the inside behind the drywall don't wrap the house with rigid as you'll trap moisture between the two. If the barrier is on the outside behind the siding you can remove it easily and not worry about trapping moisture.
