We have alot of people who are good with PIC's. I'm not one of them. But I'm sure you'll find people willing to help with such a poilite and plesantly written question.

This link seems to give a basic explanation of the sensor's workings. Then this link provides a code sample and some comments. That should help get you going. I would start by setting up the sensor and measuring the analog voltages out. The problem with sensors like this is that unless you have some calibrated gasses it becomes a hit skip affair as to gas concentrations in air.
