Some plastic toy is melting in the oven. and we can't scrape any more of it off, but the whole house smells really bad, and i'm pretty sure plastic fumes are toxic what should we do?

No kidding, fumes from burning plastic is pretty toxic stuff, but at least it doesn't involve toxic metallics, so use fans and open windows to ventilate thoroughly if you must continue "burning the smell" out of the oven. Don't have kids around. In fact, don't have anybody around in the house while this is happening.

plastic burning is extremely toxic, the fumes can be quite poisonous in fact. how the heck did a plastic toy get into the oven anyway??

someone left their owner's manual in the oven by accident when they turned it on and it melted all over the place.
