Default automatic 95 integra ls bad headgasket?

her radiator cracked and it overheated her car so friend changed the radiator and both hoses and it raned fine for a day and died and sat at home for three months
so i went to look at it and found out that they did not bleed the air out the coolant so i did all that then it started up again fine and she took it for a test drive around the block and came back and the fan turned on too so that's good.
the bad part is after couple of min it was idling low like 100 rpm to bogging and blowing white smoke that stings your eye like HELL! and then it turned off
it will turn back on if you press on the gas pedal but still white smoke

idk how it went from normal to completely a disater.

and have to fill up coolant too.

I was debating whether to reply to this, and originally decided not to because there seemed to be too much wrong to make this worth responding to.

Complications:
1) overheated engine
2) presence of air in coolant
3) white smoke in exhaust
4) low idle
5) stalling

I think the head and/or block is damaged from the overheating and the head gasket is blown.

Does the rad fluid smell a bit like spray paint?
