Start ripping out sheetrock 6" above water line.
I would go higher than 6". My flood insurance adjuster said 12" over the water line. House had water in it for 3 days. I took out to the 12" above and when the drying company came out, they detected moisture in the dry wall 8"-10" above what was removed. I had to take out more. Pain in the arse.
If you want to play it safe, any decent hardware store will be selling moisture meters. Get one and check the dry wall. Make sure you get the wet stuff out, or you'll be seeing mold show up later.

Insurance says since no wind insurance, all the damage cant be covered. What should I do? My parents are devastated
Damn man... Sorry to hear that.
Start the process now for an SBA Disaster Assistance Loan. That's about all I have to offer.

As for the Sheetrock gutting. It's best to cut at 2'1" or 4'1" depending on level of water . For obvious reasons . Good luck

check the policy for a "business interruption" clause.....some business insurance policies have this and can get you some money to offset other areas
