Default Stubborn carpet stain from dog vomit

I am desperate and I need help! We are renting; we have "normal" wall to wall carpet that is BEIGE!!!! So far, stains have been coming out okay with Whip It! (bought at Bed Bath and Beyond). However, I have treated a dog vomit stain three times with it and it is just not coming out.

I really need this stain out. Please let me know about stain cleaners that you have used that work for really tough stains. They don't have to be all-natural. We are renting and I need this stain out.

TIA.

What kind of dog vomit? Sorry this may be but is it just dog food? or did they get into something else nasty (my dogs usually do)?

It looked like there was some fiber from a dog toy. We feed the dogs Beneful, if that helps. Oh, it's possible that they had some people food scraps but it's been a week now and I can't remember what I might have fed them from our plates.

sometimes it can be uh kind of greasy would try a mixture of water and dish soap and some vinegar to help cut the stuff. There are also enzymes available at pet type places and walmart type places made to break down bodily pet fluids.But would try the first with a brush 1st

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser

I had light colored carpet in our previous home and it took out every.thing. Keep rinsing the eraser often and use it more in an up and down motion than a scrubbing motion, if that makes any sense.

sprinkle oxy powder all over the stain then soak with vinegar, let it sit a few then scrub and blot up. otherwise you will prob need a carpet shampooer.

Seriously, 10 years and 5 kids in a house with very light carpet. ...i should probably own stock in the magic eraser. It got out people and pet puke, black sharpie, coffee, grape juice, chocolate and blood.

Hallelujah! The stain is out. We rented a Bissell green machine from Lowe's and that did the final kill.
