Hi there...consider using Nature's Miracle for Cats found worldwide at any pet store. It's an enzymatic neutralizer which breaks down urine proteins. It works by soaking the affected areas thoroughly then allowing to air dry. Heavily soiled areas require repeated applications.
Here's more on the product itself: http://www.petsmart.com/global/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524441775019&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302033673

Hi
For just a few spots
Nature’s Miracle should work. It is available at Petsmart. Make sure you follow the direction. The main reason that it fails is that people just sprays it on and wipe it up and not let it soak into the carpet and pad like the urine did. You may need to do this 2 or 3 time. Just reminder that the urine treatment product needs to go where the urine went for it to work properly. After you clean the spots, you should shampoo the carpet using this product on the front and back of rug.
For really bad urine smell
First thing you need to know is that urine is classified as carpet damage. 90 % of the urine sits in the under pad and that is the hardest to remove. This is the reason you smell it when you wet it. In most cases if you can smell it it’s pass the point of treating from the surface. To clean it properly it is a fairly big job
Things you will need: carpet-cleaning machine.
Chemical for removing urine I recommend (Nature's Miracle is a liquid containing enzymes that feed on the organisms that give urine its odours.), which you can buy at a pet store. (Some people have use vinegar (one part vinegar to five parts water)
New under pad for the carpet
1/ lift the carpet where you think the urine is. You can tell from the bottom side of the carpet by the watermarks. You will need to extract the backside of the carpet with the urine remove treatment product.
2/ cut out the entire infected under pad and wash the floor with the urine treatment.
3/replace the under pad with the new stuff
4/ as you are laying the carpet back down treat the top of the carpet with the urine treatment.
5/ When the carpet is all back you will need to clean the all of the carpet with the urine treatment product. Just reminder that the urine treatment product needs to go where the urine went for it to work properly.
In my experience, Nature's Miracle is your best bet. Good luck!

Use the pet spray bottles and Febreze. The pet spray bottles are made my arm and hammer (you could also use baking soda) that will uliminate the bacteria and some of the odor. The Pet spray also somehow prevents the cat from wanting to go to the bathroom there again. Then Frebreze to make the room smell nice.

Nature's Miracle for Cats works!!! You pour it onto the carpet and soak it a lot. It gets into the padding below and eats the urine odors away there. We've tried vinegar, febreeze, carpet cleaning and it worked better than all of these. It's especially designed for cat urine odors so it does work.

You might have to hire a carpet cleaner - an industrial one, because cat urine is notoriously hard to get rid of. Sprays which supposedly "neutralise" the smell, tend to smell horrible themselves, and just add to the nasty smell.
Hire one of the proper cleaners and give it a thorough cleaning. The other issue here is that once your cat has used a spot once he/she is likely to go and use it again because the smell is there, so it really is essential to get rid of it completely, even if it costs a lot. If you can afford it, get a professional cleaning company in. Make sure your cat has access to a litter tray, or has access outdoors at all times. If he/she continues to do this, contact a vet for advice.

They make pet stain remover, but it only gets the pee out of the top layers of the carpet and covers up the odor with a strong perfume. I'd say that renting a carpet steamer would be the best.

Add baking soda and a little gentle soap. The baking soda neutralizes the acidity. For stains add Meat tenderizer, it contains enzymes that disolves proteins.

Tear up the carpet and the pad, sand the floor and seal it with varnish or wood sealer and get new carpet and padding. None of the "neutralizers" or cleaners or deodorizers work permanently and the cats will keep going back to that spot. Every time you get a new pet it will soil that spot again.

Mix a half and half mixture of white vinegar and water. test on rug to make sure it doesn't ruin your rug. That should get the smell out to you and your pets. Do Not use anything with ammonia or sent like ammonia. If you do they will keep going in that spot.

Put lots of air freshener where smell is coming from. Use Alchohal or bleach. Then put air freshener on it. Or steam clean.
