they make that stuff called 'kilz' that is supposed to seal in any smell......... but i don't know if you could put vinyl on top of it since it's a sealer.
here they laid down the concrete backerboard stuff. they had pulled up carpet and it was plain plywood underneath.

You were right to think that Jen. Thank the good Lord
that I mentioned I would be sealing the concrete
floors before laying concrete to the Home Depot guy
today. He nearly had a conniption fit. He said that
the porosity of the concrete is how the tile glue
adheres to the concrete. Take away the porosity, and
the tiles won't stick! So I am soooo glad I got that
tidbit of info. So now I have to find another way to
get that nasty smell out of the porous concrete. I
guess I will try everything for the next week or so,
including bleach, enzymes, vinegar, whatever... lol.
Actually, I don't think bleach works. Another
thing-we're not looking forward to moving our 55 gal.
aquarium. That will be a job! 1 gallon of water
equals about ten pounds, so needless to say, we'll be
emptying some water out. lol.
