Try to rent an ozone generator (they are expensive to buy for a 'one time interior detail'

Ozone Generators:
Used to eliminate foul odours that have accumulated in vehicles interiors, mildew, pet odours, urine, vomit and smoke, benefits of Ozone Cleaning- it doesn't have as strong or over–powering odour like Fluorine or Chlorine, yet it is so powerful, it actually eliminates those odours. “Ozone is a molecule composed of three atoms of oxygen. Two atoms of oxygen form the basic oxygen molecule--the oxygen we breathe that is essential to life. The third oxygen atom can detach from the ozone molecule, and re-attach to molecules of other substances, thereby altering their chemical composition. It is this ability to react with other substances that forms the basis of manufacturers’ claims” (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) www.epa.gov/iaq/pubs/ozonegen.html)

As a result the particle will no longer be toxic, nor will it be able to reproduce, if it is biological. In other words, the toxic particle becomes completely harmless once ozone air cleaners do their job. When the single oxygen molecule oxidizes the particle, it too is destroyed. The smell dissipates rapidly once doors and windows are opened. When running (usually 10-15 minutes) an ozone machine, close all windows and doors and ensure that the AC controls are set to the recirculation setting, thus ensuring the AC unit will also be treated. Once the ozone treatment is completed thoroughly ventilate the vehicle interior
Use in conjunction with Auto Internationals Odor Terminator (Valugaurd) most odors will be eliminated
