My husband poured muriatic acid down our clogged drain. do we need to evacuate? smells like rotten eggs

Run water: Run copious amount of water through the pipes, and it outside temperature allows, open the windows for some time to clear the air. If the smells dissipates, you would not need to evacuate. If it persists, you may wish to consult your fire department for help.
