some have told me that I should pour a cup of bleach into two gallons of water and wash the whole place with this mixturesomeone else mentioned a bowl of vinegar placed in the middle of the floor.I have also tried Coffee which did help absorb a lot of the odor but there is still a lingering scent.I am frustrated because I am no expert cleaner. and I cant believe that washing the walls and doors did not solve this issue.

I am so impressed with Bigger Pockets and the wealth of knowledge and camaraderie here.

Thanks again for everyone's knowledge and input.
