Need to Find Housing for Chemically-Sensitive Friend

A friend in the Philly area is in desperate need of environmentally safe housing for herself and her 20-something daughter. She is chemically sensitive from pesticide exposure, and they had a major fire in their home a couple of months ago. It won't be remediated for another 6 months to a year. They've had a place to stay for a few weeks, but now they need to leave. She lives in Wynnewood, which is a suburb of Philly. She's contacted realtors and went to many homes and apartments to rent, but they either were scented with sprays, just painted/cleaned, or had new building materials installed.
I know this is a longshot, but if you know anyone in the Philly area  who might have property (or rooms to rent) where the owner is environmentally conscious, please let me know. She's also a few miles from NJ, but I am unfamiliar with that part of the country. She and her 20-something daughter are teachers. Dogs would be a problem because of allergies, but they're ok with cats.

If you have any contacts who might be able to help her find something, please pass on my email.  Thank you.
