Here is a couple of ideas that people have given me .

#1: put a modest size of charcoal in each boot, don't crush them okay. let the whole pieces sit for a while and the smell will be gone.

#2: baking soda! sprinkle baking soda in your boots, concentrate on the toe-part, the day before and the day after you wear them. works wonders.
