Help needed - Smell of mildew

ON Wednesday after all the rain, we had a huge flood in our apt... we had to pull up all the carpets and spent all day yesterday cleaning up water, moving furniture, etc. Under the carpet was wood floors which are still damp and smell... any suggestions on how to get rid of the smell... we have used pine sol... scented candles, febreeze, clorox, and plug in airfresheners. Someone told me listerine and water??? any suggestions!

Have you looked into a dehumidifier or an industrial fan to keep the air circulating? You might be able to rent them if you don't want to buy one.
