After you vacuum...............vacuum some more.

Other than that clean as usual. If any of it remains after cleaned and dried then vacuum again.

If the drywall dust clumps use your yellow shark tool to loosen it up. Vac up your wet problem areas with a shopvac. Dont spray heavy and use a dry pad a green stripe helps alot digs the crap out.

I would think the obvious best solution here is an industrial fan and a open door :017:
