Odor is an excellent product for for odor control but I would use white vinegar. Wash/clean everything using a cup of white vinegar in the wash cycle (you may want to use the pre-soak cycle before washing), use the odor ban in the rinse cycle.
Set an open container of white vinegar perhaps a bowl throughout the house. The white vinegar will absorb the odors. I know how stubborn that scent can be. I used professionals to rid my home and furniture of the smoke scent but if you don't have that choice, the odor ban and vinegar should do the trick.

You are able to remove smoke smell from clothes by soaking the clothing in 1 cup vinegar and water overnight in the washer. Run the rinse cycle the next day and then through a normal wash cycle. If They still smell soak one more time in same solution overnight and then dry as usual...
My husband is a volunteer fireman and this is what i do to remove the smell of fire smoke from his clothing...hope this helps :o)

fill the washing machine with warm water, add 2 cup vinegar and 1 cup baking soda. mix well by agitating cycle for a couple minutes. Then add clothes. agitate for a few more minutes then lstop the cycle and let the clothes soak in this for at least 12 hours. let the wash and rinse cycles finish. then wash as usual using detergent.

Wash the clothes a couple of times with scented laundry detergent. The house will take more cleaning time and might see about someone coming in to clean the whole house top to bottom if you can afford it.

I think companies like Servepro can help with a clean up like that. I would imagine your home owner's policy should help to cover the costs of cleaning up the mess the fire made. I'm really sorry to hear of your misfortune.

Go to a Sam's Club and get a container of a product called "odor
Ban". That is what we used after we had our fire and it worked really well.

Hang them outside on sunny days. Then wash what can be put in water and have the rest dry cleaned.
