    Take off the back of the fridge and remove the dead animal(s) that are decomposing.

    Next remove everything from the fridge then remove all of the drawers and shelves and scrub them first with baking soda and vinegar...then with baking soda and water.

    Do the same with the inside of the fridge.

    FINALLY - Spray EVERYTHING with a hydrogen peroxide solution 4 parts Hydrogen peroxide and 1 part water.  Let it sit for an hour then wipe it down with a paper towel.

    Put the fridge back together plug it in and let it get cold.  Put back any food that is not spoiled...and put and open box of baking soda in to absorb the remaining odors.

    If it STILL stinks after a week you will have to replace it.
