Answer 2

you need to rid the smell, not cover it up

i would fill the washer with hot water, add a cup of baking soda and a quarter cup of vinegar and let it soak for a while....a couple of hours at least.
Drain the washer, spin it out, and refill before sending it through the regular wash, i believe that should be enough to deodorize your clothing
