Mary, do not use fish emulsion in the house.  It stinks.  I just use a half
strength solution of water-soluable fertilizer, K-Mart's cheaper than
miracle gro type.  I only use it on seedlings once they are transplanted
into trays.

The fish emulsion has a mild smell. But at the dilution rate for seedlings
you will hardly notice it.  Even at full strength the emulsion smell goes
away quickly.  Everyone who opts for chemical fertilizers because of the
smell need to suck it up and tolerate the smell for the benefit of our
environment.
