You can find them at most big box stores or on amazon. I have a review of one here https://familyfocusblog.com/room-air-purifier-allergies-airdog-x5/ I like it because you don't have to replace the filters- you can just wash them.
I don't think air purifiers necessarily eliminates,users. Mostly for alergines. The best you can.do is empty the litter box daily and use,plug ins scent boosters.

Try Nature’s Miracle spray. They carry it at Walmart and most pet stores. It can be sprayed on most everything.
Hi Carollee, hope this step by step helps you out,
Clean the area with a towel or paper towel. It is always best to immediately clean the area using a towel or paper towel. Wipe the area until no urine remains. You can even make use of old newspapers to soak as much urine as possible. Simply place several sheets of newspapers in the affected area to soak up the maximum amount of urine at one go. Repeat the process until the area is dry.
2. Use soap and water. Once the entire area is cleaned, it is necessary that you use water to thoroughly clean the area.
3. Use a sanitizing liquid. It is best to use a sanitizing liquid in your towel during the final round of cleaning. You can purchase any branded sanitizer from the stores, or you can even make one at your home.
4. Use a black light. This will ensure that you can see any stains that you might have missed during the cleaning process. While using the blacklight, mark the areas of stain with chalk, so that you don’t miss out the stains this time.
5. Use a wet vac with lukewarm water. You should always avoid using hot liquids directly on the affected area of the carpet. Using lukewarm water to wet vac the affected area is ideal. In case you do not have a wet vac, it is always a good idea to rent one.
6. Mix baking soda, peroxide and dish detergent. Make a solution of baking soda, peroxide and any dish detergent of your choice. The combination of these 3 is powerful enough to drive away even the strongest of urine smells. Mix together 8 fl oz. of peroxide, with 3 tbsp. of baking soda and a few drops of dish detergent. Spray the mixture onto the affected area and allow it to sit for 10 – 20 minutes. Later on, brush the area and you will find out that the smell is gone.
7. Vinegar. This is another good alternative to drive away strong urine smell from home. All you need to do is directly spray-undiluted vinegar on the affected area. Leave it for 15 – 20 minutes. Later on, you can even brush off, to drive away from the remnants.
8. Homemade spray. You can even try this homemade solution to remove the smell of urine from carpets and floors. All you would need is a tsp. of baking soda, vinegar, ½ a tsp. of orange essential oil and about 5 ounces of hydrogen peroxide. Spray the prepared mixture onto the affected area. Let it dry completely. Upon drying, you would notice powder remnants, which you can clean up with your vacuum cleaner. If the smell of the urine still persists, then you can repeat the process twice or even a third.
9. Commercial urine cleaners. This contains powerful enzymes in them. They are extremely helpful in removing strong urine odors and the toughest of stains. These enzymes work on the stains and odor-causing molecules and break them down. These cleaners are great if you have aging loved ones in your home.
I believe Pet Shops sell a spray that can help you.
