If the smell is just as strong a day later, soot has likely worked into the drywall and duct system already.

Airborne residue from a fire can keep irritating your lungs well after the flames are out.
Kingston, NJ insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.
