If you have a Local Carpet Cleaner supplier or Janitor Supply , there is a carpet cleaner called "Kill Odor" and it's what Carpet Professionals use when they clean your carpet and it's the "BEST" product to use for Pets, Smokers etc.

It comes in a huge gallon jug and You mix w/ water , it will last for a long long time and You can also use it for cleaning the Bathroom, Kitchen, Garage just about every where and it has a Wonderful Fresh smell.

Wal-mart used to carry a product called "totally toddler" and they also had one called "totally pet". It is very easy to use and does really well. One caution it is quite strong for asthmatics, I cannot use it anymore. But it works great!

I have used peroxide (plain old household type) and ammonia forever. 1 cup peroxide to 1 tablespoon of ammonia. I use this cleaning solution on so many things and it hasn't failed me yet. You might want to do a small test area first but I have not had it remove color from anything that I have used it on. Just spray, let it sit a bit and blot with paper towels. Keep on until the stain is gone. My animals do not go back to an area cleaned with this solution.

There are several similar requests that have answers here on the site; but I have found that the very best for any/all odors is Don Aslett's XO; it is used in hospitals and nursing homes, I was unable to locate it locally at janitorial supply houses, so I got it from site years ago; I have given it to others, and used it myself many times, and it is outstanding.
I learned about it on www.qvc.com; when the problem solutions came on; I had seen it several times, and finally ordered some from his own site; for me and a friend who split a gallon of it. I still have lots left, and have used it with great success. It is biodegradeable and safe for animals and humans!
It is concentrated so a little goes a very long time. In fact, if I had known how great it worked and how little was needed, I never would have gotten 1/2 a gallon!
Good luck!

I am a college student and just got a new puppy about a month ago. He is now potty trained and the few accidents he did have on the carpet, I thought, I had cleaned well.

Vinegar and water is the very best thing. It kills the odor and germs. (11/17/2009)

RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal

I want to say I appreciate all the info. I have always used the vinegar solution because of allergies to cleaners. I have learned new info from all these blogs. Thanks. (02/23/2010)
