At the risk of sounding like a know it all, or worse, Martha Stewart, Run don't walk, to your nearest grocery store and buy five aerosol cans of SPOTSHOT. Get up close to the stain and spray until it's soaked. Cover with an old towel and walk on the wet spot until it's fairly well absorbed and spray again. It will be gone for good. I buy the cans of SpotShot by the sixes at Sams. I have 4500 square feet of white carpeting and it is lookin' good. Also, I agree that the extra for the commercial...Teflon?? is NOT worth it. It doesn't resist stains and makes it harder to remove them later. I call three people who clean carpet and get there best bid. I also only have them do ONLY traffic areas. I drag anything I can out, and push everything to the side or pile on other pieces of furniture and have them place plastic under anything left and have them do traffic areas.(open areas, it doesn't get dirty under the couch or table) . Saves you a bunch of money. It usually costs me about $110 for two rooms and a hall here in Cincinnati. Please let me know how much down there.
