Ted shuffled out of his cave and grunted these great (and sometimes not
so great) words of knowledge:

Get some "Ozium" and spray it. A 2 - 3 second burst will absorb and
neutralize ANY odor including cigarette smoke. Small cans are available
in MOST auto supply sections of Wal-Mart. Large cans (14oz) you will
most likely either need to get from the internet or a medical supply house.

I smoke. My wife is sensitive to cigarette smoke. When I smoke in the
den, I spray with Ozium and within 15 minutes my wife has no problem.
People who come to our home do not know I smoke or we have 2 dogs - it
is that good.

I have no connection with the company and I do not sell or distribute
the product.
