I know the 3-pronged outlets aren't really grounded from the house inspection, still I feel its safer for me to use those until I have the wiring properly grounded. Thanks for everyones help
As far as smell goes, I made a carbon scrubber (accidentally bought kitty litter that said "with activated carbon!") big mistake! I went back and bought the kind with crystals and more pantyhose (they must think I'm a freak at the store), but the point is the smell throughout the house is gone! Now I won't get suspicious looks from household visitors

The clones I've taken some have dies, but I'd say 6 or 7 look like they might make it, only time will tell there I guess.
