I had an old dog that pee'd all over. When I just washed it, it went away after it was dry. But on a humid day, the house reeked with the 'aroma'.
I washed the entire area with vinegar, (white, not cider), diluted with water, scrubbed it with a towel wet with the solution. The vinegar smell goes away after it dries, and never had the smell again in the house!
Vinegar is the best for all household cleaning. There is a site, just google 'cleaning with vinegar' and read it. It is 'going green' to the max.

In another request, some nice lady said to use douche rinse on the pet stain to get rid of the smell. I have never tried it myself, but it makes sense to me when you consider the normal use.

The BEST odor remover is NOKOUT. You name the odor and it will remove it for good! http://www.nokout.com. It's the very best! It removes urine smell from carpet, carpet pad and wood floors. Even the unfinished wood floors in older homes. Donna from OK

Dampen paper towel w/white vinegar and wipe area of urine smell - you may want to do a hidden area first to make sure there is no discoloration.
