Long time lurker, but I could really do with some of your expert advice.

We've removed all the carpets and underlay (the soft furnishings are all my own) cleaned all the curtain tracks, and the windows, we've mopped the floorboards with disinfectant and bleach, it still reeks. Has anybody tried the bowls of vinegar to absorb the smell? I moved in on Friday, and it's been full on so far, but I'm off out tomorrow to get some white vinegar.

Any other options? Please? I'm a non-smoker, and petless, but you wouldn't know it if you came in my front door right now.

I wallpapered the hallway. Only way to rid stench of fags dog combo. It was the last thing i tried, worked a treat.
