Cigarette smoke is just as bad a cat urine! :sick:
Using a hot water carpet extractor is going to be your best bet. Smoke smell doesn't sit on the walls that long, especially if you've already painted them twice. You can try to mask the smell, which is NOT recommended because it will come back the very first time the new tenant goes to vacuum. The agitator brush from the vacuum "reactivates" the smoke smell.
We use a company that does an awesome job at getting the smoke smell out because they use a 500 PSI hot water carpet extractor with specific chemicals that are formulated for smoke.
If all else fails....replace the carpet ;)

Here is something that may or may not work Cut an onion in two leave out overnight. It is a trick I used when painting to get rid of paint smell.
Oh no, I hate cigarette smell. You might want to place small pieces of charcoal around the area for a couple of days. Make sure windows are close and so as cabinets. The charcoal will absorb the smell. Eventually, you can start using your exhaust fan, open windows and spray. BUt, it is most important that the charcoal absorbs the smell first.
Pet odor eliminator powder usually works. However, sometimes the odor is coming from the carpet padding and could be producing mold spores. It might be worth your while to hire a carpet cleaning specialist that guarantees odor elimination.

NAMCO has powder based products that have really clean scents that you sprinkle on the carpets, run an ozone machine right after for 6-8 hours, vaccuum and then paint. It gets rid of it usually the first time!! AWESOME!!
We have several apartment communities that have problems with curry smell in the halls. Has anyone used or have recommendations for a scent delivery system?
