The smell of cigarette smoke can be really hard to get rid of. To eliminate the smell try washing all the laundry (bed linens included), wash the walls of the house (I use Dawn dishwashing liquid w/ Bleach), and scrub the carpets. If you are still smoking and don't want a house that smells like an ashtray, I HIGHLY recommend using AirWick plug in warmers. They are available in a large variety of scents and are relatively inexpensive. I use "relaxation" which is Lavender and Chamomile scent. Nobody would even guess I smoke in my house and a few of my friends have started using them to make their houses smell great. . . and they don't even smoke.

Get Nutra-Air citrus scent or a citrus candle. They also make Carpet Fresh-use the pet scent as it seems to work better. For the clothes, use a good quality detergent and Downy fabric softner. Also try fabric refreshers such as Febreze or Clorox Fresh Scent-it can be sprayed on clothes, carpets, furniture etc.

Air exchange unit or two. There are smoke eating sponges that work somewhat, however you best bet is going to be a pricey air exchanger

Any citrus air freshener will take care of the smoke smell. Works excellent in the car!!!!!!
