If the smell is just as strong a day later, soot has likely worked into the drywall and duct system already.
Dark residue collecting near vents is a sign your ductwork carried soot into rooms nowhere near the fire.

Airborne residue from a fire can keep irritating your lungs well after the flames are out.
Waiting too long to document damage is one of the more common reasons Burns, TN fire claims get partially denied.

Change orders require your written sign-off — nothing gets added to the bill without it.
Reconstruction work is covered against defects for a full year after completion.
You won't be bounced between five different subcontractors on this job.
