Many property owners call both, and it does not matter much which is first. Sewer backup companies and plumbers often work one after the other on the same job.

The smell comes from the contamination, so the fix is removing sewage and soaked materials first, then disinfecting and deodorizing. Air fresheners only cover it. If the odor persists, hidden material such as subfloor or insulation may still hold sewage.
