If it were just those two, yes I would go grab what little spackle I have and fill them up. But we’re talking about 40+ holes, so I’d have to buy a bunch more spackle and crawl around the floor patching all of the holes. Based on the feedback I’ve gotten, I’m not too worried about it. All of my baseboards are sealed top and bottom so I don’t think there will be any issue with airflow.

You're probably OK leaving it, but if it was me, I'd probably get a bag of easy sand 90 and patch up the holes. If you follow this guy's instructions, and buy like 20 bucks worth of materials/tools he recommends, you'd have it done in under an hour and you'd never have to worry about it in the future. It goes on way easier than that pre-made shit.

ozone generator

this thing will pummel any bad smells, do NOT go in the room, preferably leave the house for 12hours when you do it, it will literally kill you. you can even test it out on your car, my first time doing it, i did it to my car, closed doors then i opened the door and the whiff, whoa, i started dry heaving, like this must be what mustard gas is like, and my car had that smell for 2 days (i didn't even touch it) but after? neutral. it was a never smoked in civic, but 20years old. i've used it a good bit, used it on my old house, used it again on the house when i had a huge leak in the basement i didn't know about, 2 days straight and no damp smell.
This is also a good pest killer solution if you dont have people/pets/plants in the area your blasting. Obviously there's a time component to let it run + ventilate after.
