Put one of those aluminum disposable pans filled with plain BBQ charcoal in there overnight.

place a cut onion in the room, it may take a couple tries
Hi Jean, Here's a link that may help! http://atlantapaintingcompany.com/2016/02/04/how-to-remove-paint-fumes-with-common-household-items/
Hope this helps!
set out a dish with a bit of vanilla on a cottonball. it will absorb the odor. Turning on the fan will also help. I personally add white vanilla to my paint before I start to get rid of the paint smell.
Put a portable fan at the back of the room blowing out into the rest of the house. Place a dish of charcoal in there for a week or so, both will help dissipate the fumes more quickly.
Bobby is right the vanilla will do the trick , the dollar tree has vanilla and use the whole bottle in the bowl and in the future add vanilla into the paint this really plays down that paint smell with or without a window.
