Maybe you could mention something to the mom that your husband or someone else in the family has asthma or a really sensitive nose, and that you love having Marsha over to play but you've noticed that now that it is colder outside she's smelling like smoke. You're concerned that your husband (or imaginary asthma person) would have a negative reaction, and you were wondering if as a smoker she had any suggestions or ideas for how to keep the smell off of Marsha. If she says she doesn't, then ask if it would be okay if Marsha wore "special clothes" to play at your house so the smoke was less of an issue and then you could Febreze her other clothes.
Her teacher or someone should really be saying something to the mom about the smoke smell.
