Locating the Source of Smell In House?

I was out of town from Friday to Sunday and my roommate said a smell started on Saturday. The smell is like b.o. and cat litter. I have sniffed every inch of the downstairs where the smell is and cannot find the source. I rearranged my living room and found nothing, and the smell gets worse each day. Any advice?

You may have a dead animal around or underneath your house. A pest extermination company can dispose of any dead animals, or, recommend a solution if another problem is the cause. Dead animals can take weeks and months to decay completely, however, often a home owner who does not check for a dead animal may find that the decay liquids have seeped into the house structure (floor, walls, etc.) and may then need to replace the affected area as the smell can then take months and years to dissipate.

Using kitty litter will absorb any foul odor especially if it is in the walls. Just make a hole pour it in..... Works great with dead animals or rodents,too
