I feel for ya. When I was in college in Ohio, I was running down an empty country road at 3am when a pack of deer ran across my path while I was going 50mph. Saw deer flying left and right from my car after impact. Did thousands of dollars damage to my car, but just was glad I wasn't hurt. To this day, when I see a deer on the side of the road, I slow down. They do massive damage to cars.

I did the same thing to my one month old 3 series a few years back. The bill was about $1500 to replace all the panels underneath, clean out the deer chunks, and align. Fortunately no injuries (other than the deer) or real damage to the vehicle.

I had a buddy who was riding a motorcycle and a car in another lane hit a deer like what you described, flipped the deer up and it landed on him taking him off the back of his bike. He lived long enough to talk to his family and tell them he was going to be ok and have a family prayer. 2 hours after he passed due to internal head bleeding..

As for the smell.... My family owns a butcher shop so I'm usually out there helping. Guess I've learned to work past it. You could spray some bleach up under the car with a spray bottle and then hose it off. Might help. Not sure if bleach can hurt anything or not
