Carpet Cleaners?

Doggy got sick this morning on our 1 month old berber carpet, I was rushing for work, so cleaned it so far with just dish detergent and sponge. What else should I try ?

Resolve works well on most spots. I dont know about pet stains.

I love the Orange Clean carpet cleaner. It takes out EVERYTHING. My SIL got me hooked on it, new or old stains always come out. You can get it at Linens and Things.

Thanks all, I went to Eckards last night, because I was in a rush and all they had was Oxi Clean for Laundry and Carpets, it worked ok, you can still see the ring of the stain but it isn't too discolored

I wouldn't suggest Resolve. Resolve has some chemicals in their product that not only leave an unpleasant, lasting odor, but it also tends to discolor the area. I used to use it religiously but after awhile I noticed my carpet looked like a dalmation and the smell was horrible. Can't even begin to describe what it did to the floor underneath. I bought a relatively cheap steam cleaner and I use that now with just regular laundry detergent. It smells less 'chemically' and it looks great. My pup was 'sick' and did it on the couch. I was horrified but the stain and the odor came out without a problem.

Berber carpets are best cleaned with dry cleaning solution! I had my childrens bedrooms cleaned this way and it got out mud (from the canal) and an accident my little one had when he was sick that was still showing a bit!

Whatever you do, don't steam it! It doesn't work and because of the nature of the Berber carpet....it takes a long long time to dry!

Good Luck
