Think I made a huge mistake

Today I had some contractors in to fix a problem with a window installation. They painted around my three windows in the chameleon room with an oil-based primer paint. I thought a ceiling fan and fan in the doorway blowing in fresh air from the hall and an open door to the hall would be good enough. MY own eyes and lungs are bothering me.

I'm worried.

It is about 95F outside and my chameleons cannot cope with temps much over 80. I have a window a/c in the chameleon room. I've opened my windows. The small amount of painted area is dry, but I'm still bothered by it.

Will they be okay? Taking them out is not really practical. I'm hoping that if it doesn't kill painters, it won't kill my chameleons.

How big a problem have I created? Thanks.
 
Fumes are a problem for chameleons, but if you have fans drawing the fumes away, you have done about all you can do. Just keep as much airflow going as long as any smell remains. Good Luck let me know.
