Hire a Professional Cleaner
The most important variable to account for in pet stain removal is that non-professional cleaning will only get rid of surface stains. Pet urine is especially foul because it seeps into the fibers of the carpet and cannot be removed unless they are cleaned with high-quality chemicals and tools. The bacteria soaked carpet can release odor into the home well after they have been scrubbed with any of the other alternate cleaning methods. The only solution to completely get rid of pet stains and odors is to schedule a professional steam cleaner to do the job.
