Keep them out of affected rooms until a cleanup team has finished. Children and pets are closest to floors and furniture and are most at risk from residue. If a child or pet touches or swallows something, call Poison Control or a veterinarian.
The owner of the property usually pays at first. Lease terms and local law decide who is responsible in the end. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say. Keep any record the cleanup team gives you, since a landlord or insurer may ask for it.
