Default Horrible new carpet smell

Hi all, I am hoping someone can help me. I just moved into a new apt. The tipping point for me to move was that it will be much better for me new Yorkie puppy who will be 6 months old by the time I finally get her. I had to postpone getting her twice, once because of the move and then again because of the horrible, chemically new carpet smell. Cheap indoor/outdoor carpeting was put throughout the house and the smell is AWFUL. I had a carpet cleaning guy come in and spray it with, what was supposed to be, non toxic stuff to get rid of the smell. Well it made it worse. I have tried opening all the windows all day long, but it still stinks. The breeder won't send me my dog until the smell is gone because she said the dog might get really sick.

I don't know what to do, I am so upset!! I haven't tried steam cleaning the carpets yet. I am afraid that it might make the smell worse if they get wet. I am freaking out. I am sitting here, freezing with all my windows open right now.

My question is, has anyone else had this problem with the smell and if so, did your Yorkie get sick? Also, does anyone have any suggestions as to how to get rid of the smell?

Please help, I want my Beanie and I can't get her. I am heartbroken. I attached a picture of her.
