Working in companies that have some Haram activities : working in a place that sells not Halal meat

Fatawa Question

Dear Dr. Monzer, Assalamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh, I worked in a shop in London for 6 years, and in that shop they sold bacon and not Halal meat, cigarettes etc. (no alcohol) I feel guilty that I used to earn such money and saved some from it, I also deceived the authorities claiming that I was not working while I was working in the black market ( the authority used to pay for me my accommodation + money so I could buy food), I saved some money while I was working at that place ( selling not Halal) and deceiving the authority . I want to be clean, I repented but still I feel guilty, what can I do to cleanse myself from that money that was earned not in a nice way. The place I used to work for was a grocery shop and a little section had the no Halal product. Jazaka Allah
