As you may remember, my aide and myself were also sick until >after the windows were opened. I did as most of you suggested....got a >carbon monoxide detector..it has not gone off. I thought the nightmare >was over. My Aunt went through a long period of time where she would get bad headaches while at home but was fine outside of her house. It wasn't Carbon Monoxide poisoning with her. The phone company broke the sewer line to their house last summer and in the process of fixing that they discovered that the line to their house had collapsed in. It wasn't bad enough to have sewer backing up in their basement but it turned out that the fumes from the sewer line were backing up in their house. They made the phone company and whoever installed the line in the first place pay to fix the whole line and since then she has not had any headaches in her house. I wonder if this could be the problem with your house. It is hard to tell though because there wasn't actual sewer backing up so they had no idea until they dug it up to fix it for another problem. Also, when I say fumes I don't mean that their house smelled like a sewer, my aunt is about the most annul person in the world when it comes to having a clean house but there were poisonous fumes getting released in their house. Since it doesn't appear to be carbon monoxide, this is the next place that I would look. Good Luck and I hope that your nightmares ends with the last two staying healthy.
