How do I stop my new rugs from smelling?

We've just bought 2 new rugs for the living room -they look great but stink.

How do I get rid of the smell?

(off to get some fresh air do the school run now, but back later)

TIA

Dunno, but bumping for you because our new rug in the living room smells too, a little bit like stale cigarette smoke. So far I've just kept the windows open as much as possible, and vaccuumed a lot, but no luck.

can anyone help us new rug owners? Please.
