Smoke Smell, So embarassed Options

[BlackCelicaGT94]

So i live at home and both my parents smoke indoors probably close to pack a day. I hate the smell and now I even am getting talked to at work about how I smell like smoke and my car does. My car is only 2 months old and has never been smoked in so I guess that tells you just how strong the smell is.

Anyone have any ideas on what I can do? I cant tell my parents what to do because its their house. I cant move out at this moment in time. I may be able to this time next year.

So my only ideas are

To put my clothes in baggies in my closet
Fabreeze the crap outta them


I cant close my door so I cant keep the smoke smell out as much as id like.

Im so embarassed by this. I hate the smell too :-(

I've heard that there's a product out called Ozium - it's a spray can air freshener that has that ozone stuff in it and is supposed to work EXTREMELY well. (Hotels use it I'm told) I wouldn't use it around the bunny, although it can't be any worse than the second hand smoke it's inhaling, but try using it in your car to help some. I was gonna also recommend one of those Ionic air purifiers, I think they're supposed to work extremely well. But it sounds like you've got that covered.

Unfortunately the smell will never come out completely. I quit smoking on October 22nd this year (I'm still weening from the patch) and now that I've quit, I can REALLY smell it like on jackets and stuff. (I never smoked in my house, but minimally in the car) Ya gotta wash EVERYTHING. Maybe get inexpensive garment bags to hang your clothes in?
