Good luck. In time it will go away. We cut holes in our kitchen floor searching for what we now call "Robbie the Rat" but found nothing, hired plumbers to check sewer connection and plumbing, exterminators to look under house, behind dishwasher and then just set the old fashion traps to catch "active" ones. We caught lots but that did not take away the smell -- aweful yes.
Find where the source of the rats are coming from. Is there garbage or a restaurant near by? Close off all entrances to your foundation with the foam that expands, set traps, use incense and wait three to 6 months.
Sorry I don't have beeter news
