The tenants who lived in my apartment before I moved in left a fish in the fridge and had the power off, so the fish started to rot. I have tried baking soda and cat litter, but that has not worked.

Better idea - Someone else mentioned charcoal. I have the perfect product that I've used for years and know dozens of other people that use it. It is a product called FRIDGE IT odor absorbers. It is a little purple cube with an incredible activated carbon filter inside that is really, really, great. It works so much better than baking soda and all those sprays and fragrances that just cover up smells and doesn't get rid of them. Also, alot of sprays have warning statements about being eye irritant. The carbon literally absorbs and eliminates the odors and works for a long time. Just place a couple in fridge and freezer. I use this product everywhere including car, storage, closets, my fridge and also under sinks, near trash and have friends that use it on cat litter box and also diaper pails - it's that good. I really recommend it. You can buy it in kitchen gadget sections in stores like walmart and linens and things. I also think camping world sells it. Definitely worth trying.

I saw a segment on one of the early news shows. They said to try using a mixture of 50% water and 50% vinegar to wash your fridge out. Also, don't forget to wash the seals and air vents in your fridge. I use this mixture to keep my fridge smelling clean. Worth a try!

An orange scent is often a good remover of odors as the previous post suggested.
Citrus works magic.

Baking soda, or take a cotton ball and wet it with Vanilla Extract and let it sit in there.
