Febreeze is a good idea- I'd also try baking powder. It took the cat pee smell out of my couch when one of cats was telling me he didn't feel good. I sprinkled it on the couch and let lay there overnight. Next day I vacuumed it up and the difference in smell was incredible! A mixture of one part vinegar to ten parts water also works fantastically and doesn't leave it's own grubby smell.

Try sprinkling baking soda on the seat. Let it sit for 15 minutes or so, and then vacuum. If it's sunny outside, leave the windows cracked an inch so the car can air out. If it still smells after a couple days, I'd take it to a detailer. Good luck! Hope your dog feels better.

Febreze for Auto Care should work. Leaving the windows cracked open to help it dry & let the smell out is a good idea too. You can pour baking soda over the spot, let it sit overnight & vacuum it off in the morning. If either of those don't work, you might have to pay for a car detailing.

Try shampooing your car seats and using febreeze. If that still doesn't get the smell out then take your car to a car detailing place and let them clean it. They have the equipment to make a car look and smell like new.

An enzymatic cleaner should work well, like urine gone or something. If you can't get it out, use a Green Machine or carpet cleaner. Make sure you clean it well or you will have to have the upholstery replaced.

I would scrub it with soap and water and allow to dry, then spray with febreeze. Leave the windows down for it to air out. That should take care of it. One of my dogs vomits ever time I take him somewhere so I have to do this about every other weekend.

Natures Miracle! From a pet food store, it gets rid of the smell, not cover it up.

fabreze and open windows do the trick but wipe the spot off with damp napkins first and natural miracle is great u can get it at most pet stores.

dont go with freebreeze junk, for real, you gotta try "scrubbing bubbles" YES I know its for bathroom, but it always works great on fabrics and carpets.....and gets the smell out very well!!
