Getting Pet Stains out of carpet?
Question:Ok, my dog got sick this morning and threw up (yellow bile) on the carpet. Gross. I was wondering what to use to get the stain out of the carpet? I used a little bit of resolve, but it seemed to make the carpet look white, even though I barely used any! I tried really hot water to dab it up, but it seems to have taken the smell away, but not the stain. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Pet Vomit Stain and Odor Removal from Carpet
To remove a pet vomit stain or odor from your carpet, the newest technology uses peroxide and detergents to penetrate the soiled area for pet stain removal and odor deactivation. Simply spray a product such as PAWS - Pet Accident Washup Solution on the soiled area, and then allow it to penetrate for approximately five minutes. Using a clean white absorbent cloth, blot the area, pressing down firmly (do not rub) for 30 seconds. Repeat this blotting process until the area is dry. If the pet stain or odor persists, repeat the process. You can also try saturating the area with a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution. Let it sit for a few minutes. Then, using a clean white absorbent cloth, blot the area, pressing down firmly (do not rub) for 30 seconds. Repeat this blotting process until the area is dry. If the pet stain or odor persists, repeat the process. Another option is baking soda, which can be used to eliminate surface (but not deeply penetrated) odors. Dampen the area with clean water and then sprinkle baking soda over it. Rub the baking soda into the soiled area and let dry; brush or vacuum to remove the dry material.=)
i'm not much of a dog owner, but i do have cats and one is very ill, so what i do is clean it up with soap and water first to get up the mess, then i take a carpet cleaner, i use spot shot, if the first time don't work try it again after it completely dries. if it stills smells i spray lysol on it to get rid of the smell and if it's really bad a put vingar on it and blow a fan on it to completely dry up the smell. hope this helps!!
Get Nature's Miracle at Petco or similar stores. Use a hand sprayer and spray a generous amount on the soiled area. Let sit for 5-10 minutes. Then wipe up with paper towels, damp sponge, or damp cloth. If the stain is really heavy, you may have to repeat the operation.
