Can Inhaling Fumes Of LPG Cause Any Harm To The Kids?
Left the burner on on accident while we weny for a walk and it melted a corner of the vent above the stove. It was really smoky and the smell was horrible! We didn t stay the night that night but came home the next night after it aired out but the smell is still pretty strong. So my question is, is exposure to the smell 24 hours later going to harm my children or my husband and I?

Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic
I went through the history and it seems that you, your husband and children were exposed to LPG fumes. These will not lead to any permanent side effects, hence no need to worry. However you can have irritation of the respiratory tract and can be treated by decongestant drugs.
Do write back to me for further questions.
Hope this is helpful yo you.
Thank you
