I'm skeptical that the oder will ever go away and I really think the sheetrock walls will absorb the smell and it will always be there in form or another.

Try putting Renuzit Odor killer cones in your walls. Or in your hot air/ac ducts upstream of your blower. The stuff really does neutralize the smell. You have to replace the cones every few days. They have a tendency to blow down the duct when they are almost empty of gel and very light. Might have to tape them down.
