Sounds like bacterial vaginosis to me. Is it a fishy odor? occur after sex too?

Lysol Kitchen Bacterial Spray
and then wipe. Works great. I love the stuff!
Cat Odor
Try spraying Febreze animal odor eliminator. Works very well for me. Had two spots in two different areas of living room carpet. Can't smell anything now. I did use a mixture of vinegar and water prior to using the above though.
Mattress odor
OK, this is a little gross, but I know you ladies are a fountain of knowlege about all kinds of things, so I'm hoping you can help. My adult niece just left after spending 2 months living with us after a rough spot in her life. She slept in my college daughter's room in her bed. There is a bad smell in the room, and I can't get rid of it even after airing out the room for 2 days. I have traced it to the mattress, mainly at the foot of the bed. She had a cat in there with her but it smells nothing like cat urine, and there are no stains at all on the mattress. I honestly think it's some kind of weird body odor, probably from the feet, and seems to have permeated an area of the mattress. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do to try to get rid of this odor, short of dumping the mattress? I'll do it as a last resort, but I hate to spend the money to get a new one. HELP!
Onion odor - eeewwww!
I did a really dumb thing. On Sunday I cut open a big purple onion and used a couple of slices in a dish. Then, wanting to be frugal and not throw the rest away, I wrapped the rest of the onion in plastic wrap and stuck it in my fridge, on a plastic shelf in the door, face-down. Okay, I'm 55 and have almost never used onions. I only bought a big one because they were out of the little pearl onions. Now, two days later, my fridge smells to high heaven! I washed out the little shelf I had put the onion on with soap and water and it didn't do anything to help. So far, all I've been able to do is put a big lump of baking soda on the shelf and hope a lot. Any ideas?
Is she actually dirty or does she have an odor problem?
Who told you she needs a bath?
Can I ask why you aren't able to brush her? There are a lot of new products and tools that can help if you have a problem with your hands or arms.
I have clients who get their dogs bathed every week but I really don't recommend that, especially for a collie type of coat. Unless your groomer missed something she should be good for quite awhile in that department.
You'll have to get something with a biological odor eater in it. Fabreze is not

You need a biological odor killer. Found in better hardware stores. Have no
Names are something along those lines, but make sure it has the word biological in it. If you can wash the blanket, put some in the wash water. If it's not washable, then just spray it for a few days in a row while hung up. I got rid of smoke odor in a couch using this stuff. It really works! Fabreze and other name brand odor eaters are not enough to do a complete job. The stuff is pricey, but worth it. Gets rid of skunk, mold smells, vomit, all kinds of funk! You can probably search for these products on line and then see if your local hardware stores or cleaning supply places have them locally. Good luck! nm
I promise you it is not the mayo - mayo actually retards bacterial growth (sm)

I also knew the chicken was questionable but I just hated to throw it out! I was hoping that since it had not been handled or exposed to pathogens if I reheated it, it would be okay. Wishful thinking.
