How to Fix Multiple Instances of Overset Text at Once

Pretty surprised that I can't seem to find a solution for this anywhere.

 

I changed a character style that created almost 100 instances of overset text. Rather than going to every single instance individually and manually expanding the text box, is there a way to simply auto-expand all frames to fit their text? I am aware of the Text Frame Auto-Fit Options, but this only works for future text frames, not existing ones. 

 

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Create an object style whose auto size is the attribute, and run a find change (object tab) to apply this object style to text frames.
