Febreze
The cleaners can perhaps help you with this problem, otherwise it is very hard to get rid of mothball odors as the scent remains a long time.
Try leaving some scented fabric softener sheets in the suit and (or) put the suit in some bag or closet, something to make the softener sheets smell not leave while it is closed so it smells better. Also a product called Febreze is really good. It is sold near fabric softener in grocery store.
Send those suits to the dry cleaner.
Hang them on a porch out of the sun.
leave them out side for a few days then take them to the cleaners
