No. Baking soda is not a reliable fix, and it may only move residue around. A cleanup crew uses products matched to the agent and removes contamination instead of masking it.
It depends on the agent, the room and the surfaces. Some residue fades in a few days, while some types cling to fabrics and carpet much longer. If burning returns when you go back in, the residue is still there.
