Baking Soda and Vinegar for Fish Odors

While vacationing at our home in Baja, a bag of fish guts leaked into the carpet of our Suburban. We tried to clean it with carpet cleaners but the still the odor was terrible. I dumped a box of baking soda onto the carpet and brushed it in and let it sit for a day. Still a terrible fishy smell. Then I pour white vinegar over the spot. It bubbled up like a first grader volcano.

It worked great, no spot and no smell.
