Hello and thanks for your question. I am very sorry that this happened to you. If you are having trouble breathing see your doctor as soon as possible. To clear out your house you need to open all the doors and windows and run fans for several hours to get the fumes out of the house. Also in the future do not mix cleaners like this. The fumes from some mixtures can be very toxic.
