Default Question from newbie!

We have a 70 gallon tank that has been set up as a freshwater tank for the
past 6 years. A week ago yesterday we changed it over to a sal****er tank,
so we are very new at this. We have added 4 damsels to the tank 5 days ago
to help cycle it through, but our Ammonia and Nitrates are both pretty high.
Nitrites and salinity are fine. Apparently this is normal and could last
awhile says the "experts" at our local sal****er fish store. How long can
we expect to wait until our levels level out and drop to the normal level?
I know we shouldn't add any other fish until this happens.

Thanks for any input!
