Default fuel oil leak/smell

I sopped up as much as I could with oil-absorbent pads from my oil
company, and pumped out as much of the water as I could. Now here's
the bad news. I want to sell my house in the next 2 months and I'm
sure that some smell remains, and that I cant even smell it anymore.
Any ideas for ridding the crawlspace and house of the smell?


I can't help get rid of the smell, but can suggest you invite people
over to tell you if they house still smells.

You're absolutely right that few if any people can smell the same
smell after a day or less of smelling it.

Maybe when you are close to done, a fan will make a difference,
although I'm sure the guys Joe suggests will have better fans.
