    febreeze works nicely if you use it daily for maybe a few days, but don’t soak your rug with it cuz it might stain, and also there are special pet stain and odor sprays if u go into the pet section at fred meyer of albertsons or somewhere sillay_goosay

    If you have a Sams Club in your area, or try your Wal-Mart if you have that is stuff called OdoBan. Works great with everything from urine smells to any household odor. EB&Js

    I always take mine outside and spray it off with the hose. Or put some laundry deturgent(sp?) in a spray bottle and spray it while you are outside, (liquid is prefered)rince it and then let it dry, it should be good after that.

    Or you could take it to a laundry mat with a industrial size washer and wash it there for like 2-3 bucks. Sabrina P

    You will never get it completely out. The smell is not only in the rug but also the padding below. I had a similiar problem and tried every product on the market, none of them brought my carpet back to new. Ultimately, I ripped out the carpet and padding and installed new. Trina S

    This always works. Put a towel on the mistake with something heavy on it for half hr, or so , then mix laundry detergent with some water n puor it on DON’T RUB, then scrub a little n put another clean towel on it with somethig heavy on it and wait about an hour or two and viola! no smell!!! I used this with my dogs , it works great! pebblesmom4

    mix bottle of household peroxide, with 1/4 cup of baking soda, and 1 teaspoon of Dawn dish soap. Apply to area while still foamy.

    Mix this in plastic or glass bowl (not metal) and don’t save leftovers. Never put a lid on it. chetco

    baking soda works real well. sprinkle it on your spots and let it stand on it for a few hours after shampooing badgirl41

    Use Nature’s Miracle … it’s all we use, and you can’t smell a thing. It’s awesome. You can buy it at PetsMart and probably PetCo or Super Pets too. jmkafer

    Rent a carpet steamer. Wait until she’s totally potty trained though. Steamers are wonderful. You can rent them at a lot of grocery stores. trust_jess

    I have a brand new puppy too, and I have washed my rug where she went potty with laundry detergent and liquid fab softner, then I sprinkle carpet fresh for pets down when I vacuum and there is no smell and she hasn’t done it again, so the ammonia smell is gone. eternallyyours30
