Go to Walmart and get a few Raid Fumigators. They are an actual smoke bomb and self generate heat to produce the smoke. The smoke gets in into every nook and cranny. Kills everything.
Here is how to use them. Roll down all the windows in the car. Place a metal baking sheet on the front floor carpet. Prepare the fumigators (fill the plastic cups with water exactly to the fill line and place on on the driver's side and one on the passenger side but do not drop them into the water yet.
Have a plastic sheet ready to place over the car. Pre place something on the passenger side to keep it from pulling over the car. Put two Fumigators under the car in the ready to start position. Open the trunk so the smoke from the Fumigators under the car can get into it.
Start the two inside the car (you have a little over a minute before the poison smoke starts being made). Shut the doors. Start the two under the car. Pull the rest of the plastic sheet over the car and put something on the extra hanging off the drivers side to seal it against the ground.
Go away for at least four hours. Come back later and remove the sheet. Take a couple of fans and direct them at the open windows on the drivers side letting the air blow through the car. If it isn't alredy wide open, open the trunk all the way so it can vent too.
I have found that an overnight air blast will get almost all the residual smell out of the car. When you first start it up I would keep the windows open and tunr on the vent fan all the way and let it blow for ten minutes before getting behind the wheel.
This method was what I used to kill a gigantic black widow infestation from a car that had been sitting inside a closed garage for three year, uncovered, with the windows down. Amazingly, there was no mold or mildew. Just a whole lot of spiders.
Then it took a full day to clean all the dead spiders and webs off of everything. Never found another spider. In the car or in the garage. Even killed all of them in an attached laundry room.
