Make sure the odor is not from the catch basin/overflo under the fridge, or the bottom under the veggie drawers. Fooled me once!

I have had very good luck using vanilla. Just wet a dish towel with water and wring out excess. Then pour vanilla straight from the bottle onto the rag until it is wet (but not dripping). Wipe the inside of the fridge with the rag. When done, reapply vanilla water to rag and leave in the fridge overnight. This was the way Rubbermaid suggested to get odors out of an ice chest.

Baking soda! This works-Arm and Hammer makes a great product, but you could probably use generic in any sort of open container.

Wrap some ground coffee in half a stocking foot and secure with an elastic band and pop into the refridgerator. Works a treat!

Try putting some charcoal briquettes in the fridge, they will absorb the odor.

Baking soda works great. I add a box to my fridge and it seems to absorb odors overnight. Also I would clean the fridge with some vinegar. That helps too.
