Bought a used fridge, it smells.
I bought a used fridge and the previous owner had a cat. There's a cat hair smell that I can't seem to get rid of. I took off the plate on the back that covers the internals and used my shop vac to clean it out. I used Comet with bleach on the inside and outside.
Still have that smell of cat coming through the fan/duct work.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I was thinking about spraying Lysol through the air vent on the back. Anything else I can do?
Thanks,
Dave

The lysol sounds like a good next step to me. If that doesn't do it, the smell has probably penetrated the seals and replacing them is the best bet.
