Default Shop sent me stinking fabric - help!

I recently made a purchase at a new (to me) shop and the fabric they sent me STINKS, literally! I’ve never experienced this before. Has this happened to anyone else and if so, what did you do to remove the smell?

I bought 2 half yards and a fat quarter bundle and it’s the yardage that has the major problem. I don’t want to prewash these items but unsure what else will remove the absolutely horrible stench before storing everything with the rest of my stash

I really don’t want my other fabrics to absorb the smell, so for now they’re separated and I’m trying to air out the new yardage as much as possible. Any other suggestions?
