This type of odor problem is also associated with cars that were sold after being in a flood. It may be more that the vents! Good Luck.

This is a foam that can be sprayed in to the vent system to kill bacteria. They also have a more comprehensive treatment where they screw a small adaptor into your platic ducting under the dash and spray in this foam to kill bacteria and freshen the system. Good luck with it.
I use lysol at the base of the windshield with the AC at full speed.
