Alright, I finally took you guys seriously and hired someone to remove the offending (now moldy) drywall. He's doing that right now. I was lucky to find someone in the area who had experience with mold and was available immediately. The insulation behind the wall was fairly dry and there was no mold on the wood framing etc. Lucky! The wet area was limited to 5' x 10'.
Go ahead and say "I told you so": I was astonished at how quickly the mold grew from one day to the next, and the air conditioner helped only minimally. Glad you convinced me not to do this job myself. Thanks very much to everyone!
P.S. No insurance necessary as this job will cost less than my deductible.
