If the smell is just as strong a day later, soot has likely worked into the drywall and duct system already.

Water from firefighting efforts plus residual heat warps wood fast if drying doesn't start within the first day.

Waiting too long to document damage is one of the more common reasons Fort Myers, FL fire claims get partially denied.
Every one of these problems compounds the longer they sit untreated — soot turns more corrosive, odor works deeper into materials, and insurance documentation gets harder to establish after the fact.
First priority is always stopping additional loss: boarding openings, tarping the roof, and pulling standing water.
