How to neutralise cannabis and cigarette smells

We've had loads of issues with the stink of cigarettes and cannabis coming into our home from next door. We can't open the windows and we've used foam filler to fill all the gaps we can find in the floor/joining party walls etc sealed where we can, but from the state of the previous owners botch jobs we'd need to rip out the entire bathroom back to brick and start again to properly seal it. As we've decided our best option is to move to get away from them (there are other issues as well as the stink) we're not going to do that so just need to manage it while we're trying to move. I've seen on here lots of other people have had similar issues. What have you used to neutralise the disgusting smell and stop it stinking out your whole house? We just can't bear it any more. Thanks

    I was delighted to find this company's products at a cigar shop in Germany.

    Anti-odour - Functional fragrances (maison-berger.co.uk)

    The shop actually has a smoking room where gentlemen (mostly) get together for an expensive cigar and equally expensive drink.  You can imagine the smell.  When the smoking session is finished they set up one of the Lampe Bergers with the anti tobacco and it does a fine job of clearing the smell.  The stuff is expensive but really worth it in my opinion (non smoker with a resident cigar person)
