Question

Answer 1

Shovel and clean up what you can and then apply lime dust.
While waiting for it to work, might I suggest some air fresheners?

Answer 2

To properly fix the problem you need to replace the drain pipes. After that you clean up any mess left over and the smell will be gone. There is nothing else you can do to get rid of it long term.
