I use an Odor Stop carpet drying fan and an ozone generator. 1) Remove everything that you possibly can from the room. 2) Vacuum the carpet and use a carpet cleaner to remove stains. 3) Lift the carpet in the center of the SHORTER wall and place the carpet drying fan under not just the carpet, but also under the pad, this will dry both the carpet and the pad. 3) Let the fan run, it may take a few days, the longer the better, the pad MUST be 100% dry. 4) Once it's COMPLETELLY dry, vacuum the carpet again (if there are still stubborn stains, try to shampoo them out again and redry with the fan). 5) Block the air return for the HVAC. 6) Place an ozone generator next to the air inlet of the fan and run them both for at least 12 hours (ozone generators are inexpensive, and you can get one on Amazon). Use a timer to automatically turn off the ozone generator at 12 hours, but not the fan, you want to leave the fan running. 7) You DON'T want to breath in ozone. Block the bottom of the door with a towel. Block the gap between the door and the doorframe with painters' tape. 8) Let the room sit for 6 hours after the ozone generator turns off. 9) Wait a day to see if the odor is gone. If not, repeat the ozone treatment. If the smell is gone, reinstall the carpet on the tack strip.

Good view about fans and dehumidifier and now I know which dehumidifier to get but nothing about the rug the queen

Heard baking soda can really screw up a vacuum cleaner

Thanks. My wool rug was clean. But then it rained. What a mess.
