Answer 2

2 great suggestions before me!! I use Odo-Ban on the furniture, carpets, and drapes, and spray the cabinets with it also.

My dogs get after skunks regularly and Odo-Ban takes care of that odor throughout my house as well as taking it off the dogs.

Answer 3

boil water with vinegar on the stove (don't burn it) and let the steam take care of it.  Wash all curtains and shampoo your carpeting

Answer 4

This is what I do. I make my own candles anyways so I light up some candles and tart warmers. Then I spray some lyson neutra air (I found this works great but any fresh scent spray will work.). Heck you can even make your own (there are a ton of recipes on making "linen spray" and that's what you need).

Then I open the windows and put out some baking soda near the source of the fire. (If you burned it on the stove, pour some baking soda in a dish and put it on the stove. Better yet, be prepared, I mix fragrance oil, the same you use to make candles, with my baking soda. It works great for accidents like this, for great carpet freshner and also to keep your shoes freshly deoderized).

All this stuff is sold online from crafters. But being a little crafty yourself all you need is a bottle of fragrance oil (16 ounces about $12.99) and some linen base (your choice) and some baking soda (mix 1 ounce of fragrance oil with a 1lbs box of baking soda, shake in a bag until not crumbled. Tada home made works great rug spray, shoe deoderizer, fridge helper and burnt smelling house remover!)

Answer 5
