Codeman 671 is absolutely right - call a professional. Besides trying to block the odor (from getting out), you also want to prevent ground water from entering the tank. You didn't mention if it is an all-gravity system, but if there is a pump in the bottom of your tank you definitely want to keep ground water and ground water-carried debris from getting into the tank and into the mechanism of the pump.
