Number one, have them stop. Clean the carpets and drapes, paint, and set up an ionizer machine. Or find a buyer who is a smoker and doesn't mind—wishing you good luck.

It depends on a couple things...
1. Is the listing occupied? If so, nothing you do will help.
2. How bad is the smoke odor? I showed one vacant listing (not mine) where it was so bad that the buyer (not mine) had to take it down to the studs. The vents were filthy so they ended up replacing the HVAC as well. Lots of work and $$$.
3. I showed a vacant condo which reeked of cigarette odor, not as bad as the house but would have needed professional remediation so the buyers did not pursue it.
The listing agent put ionizers throughout the condo and they did nothing. You might want to check with a professional remediation company about smoke damage if the ionizers, etc. do not help.

Before doing anything, get a commitment that the sellers will stop smoking in the house immediately. Hire a company to do a through cleaning of walls, floors, furniture and then get an ionizer machine to rid the cigarette stench.
Of course, selling to people that smoke is an option, Will!

I like the ionizer machines, I have also told sellers that the smell of smoke being covered up by fake scents can be a turn off to buyers. Deep Carpet cleaning and all upholstery as well seems to help.

You can rip out the kitchen cabinets, apply three coats of paint to the walls and ceilings, put down new tile or hardwood floor... but that smell is almost impossible to get out.
Just clean it as best you can (see the suggestions on this page from other posters), and price it accordingly.

You might need a professional ionization. Remove all curtains, possibly repaint walls, change carpeting, professional clean upholstery... smoke gets into all those surfaces. Sellers need to stop smoking in the house if still living there while property is listed.

Ozone machines are recommended on many short-term rental forums, but they have their own issues as Ozone is toxic.
If the home is occupied, I suggest getting a top of the line air filter and some room air purifiers and running the whole house fan 24x7. First you'll want to clean all the air ducts, wash and paint the registers with Bin Zinzer. Furniture and carpeting is going to hold the smell. Super deep cleanings, and probably several of them, may help.
Beyond that, you basically need to renno the house. Remove any carpeting and most (if not all) of the flooring and replace it. Put several coats of Bin Zinzer on every wall in the house, then repaint. Maybe even put it on the slab before redoing the floor.

They can purchase an ionizer on Amazon. Several clients have used them and it worked well. I do suggest getting it going sooner rather than later as it takes while depending on how bad the smoke is. They may have to replace any draperies as well as carpet if they have any. And sometimes they need to use a heavy duty floor cleaner before new flooring is put down. And paint paint paint. Get them to stop smoking in the house or around the house NOW!

Burn the house down! LOL
A house with ONE smoker is a lot but TWO
UGHHHHH! Suicide for a house sale and we've had this Q before . . .
I've tried ozonator, it comes back
The only thing you can do is clear all the drapes and furniture out
TSP all walls and floors
Pull up and replace carpet, tack strips and pad.
Kilz on all walls and repaint
Duct clean all ducts
and most of all . . .
price accordingly!
Make sure agents know it's a smoker's house so if their buyer just can't, there's no surprises . . .

When I moved away from home, my uncle, who was a heavy smoker, gave me some used household items and mementos in a cardboard box.
Everything smelled like smoke. I kept the box in a back room storage closet. It took about two years for the smoke odor to finally dissipate.

You should tell them how it devalues their home. No one really smokes anymore & many buyers just won't bother with it.

Cigarette, Cigar, Pipe and Marijuana smoke in a house infiltrates the heat and air conditioning vents, carpet, window treatments and even the paint on the walls. All of these items need to be treated to get rid of this awful odor. There is no easy or quick fix other than selling the house in it's current condition and adjusting the list price to get it sold.

If you have them get a cat or two and do things that cats don't like (ie breathe the wrong way, leave them alone for more than 3 minutes when they don't want to be left alone, or give them attention when they don't want your attention), they'll pee everywhere. The cat urine scent will be strong enough that people will notice the cigarette smell less, perhaps not at all.
