Use the "Pee Recipe" - it's not just for pee.
2 c. peroxide
2 t. baking soda
2 small drops liquid dish detergent

Mix gently and then pour on area. Do not wipe up - let it dry on it's own, undisturbed, for however long it takes. The smells will be gone. You can use this on dog, cat, human urine, feces, vomit. On carpet (test for colorfastness first in an inconspicuous area), mattresses, concrete, etc. Using a watering can (with sprinkler top) helps to distribute more evenly.

My son is selling his house and the basement has a horrible dog odor from where the dogs were kept. Can anyone suggest a solution I can apply to neutralize the smell? The area has a concrete floor.
