Steam clean the carpet and instead of adding soap, use white distilled vinegar. I have a pet that comes "inside" to potty and I use it constantly. It won't leave an odor either. If you can pinpoint certain spots, baking soda can work but believe or not "listerine" gets urine odors out of most anything!!!

There are products that contain enzymes that will digest the urine and thereby eliminate the smell. One such product is called "Nature's Miracle". You can get it at pet stores and a lot of grocery stores. Before doing this you might want to inspect the room with a UV light to see if you can find the source of the odor. Organic fluids (such as urine) will show up under a black light.

As people have mentioned, the urine might be in the carpet pad so you might have to use a lot to make sure the carpet and the pad are completely soaked.

I would say that if it is your home you should tear up the carpeting sometimes smells get so permeated into the carpet that they are impossible to get out. Because of the padding that is underneath it all needs to be ripped up and replaced. No amout of shampooing or deoderants will take care of these situations. This is usually because they have seeped into the wood floor underneath and that needs to be cleaned before the new carpeting is placed. Or you could just leave the floors bare if you have natural wood floors underneath the carpeting. This is usually a problem with urine because it was not cleaned up immediately or it was repeately stained and that is a hard odor to get rid of. Good luck.

You should try removing the carpet permently. Maybe the smell is coming from the furniture in the room.

*Clean all the furniture from top to bottom with a mix of bleach and water. If CPS knows that you are making an honest effort to get rid of the smell then they cannot mess with you about it.

*Keep all receipts of cleaning supplies that you bought to clean the room and start keeping a record of what you have done to the room and what you have told CPS and their response to you.

*CPS can also give you a money voucher to a local K-Mart or Target to get cleaning supplies.

*Let them witness you cleaning it when they come for home visits.

Hope this helps :)

Believe it or not, shampoo carpets with clear ammonia and water mix, Im in the cleaning busness and we use this alot to remove odors. Smells bad when wet,(like pee) but odors are gone when it dries. Really works! You can also set a dish around the house(not with pets or children) and it will absorb odors. Make sure you use a carpet machine which not only cleans, but extracts as well. (one that puts the solution down, then pulls it back up with dirt ect.) You will have a tank of dirty smelly water.That way you dont leave anything in carpet which will attract more dirt or odors.

boil cabbage
saute garlic
poach fish
fry liver and onion

all simultaneously the next time CPS comes

pita "if" this is true

I've had success using "Petzyme" [ buy at petsmart, etc.] AND
doing a thorough drenching, followed by covering the area with a towel overnight.
The "covering and drenching" goes against the label directions, BUT is supported by some enzyme products used by crime scene cleaners.
This method has worked when the enzyme "by convention" did not.

I would also be tempted to sprinkle a bottle of vanilla extract into the carpet just to mask the odor "if" I had to replace the carpet and pad and could not at this time.

carpet cleaning should have done the job because they usually deoderise as well, i'm just guessing but may be the smell isn't in the carpet or the walls' it might be in the matress. take it out side to air it , then smell the room while the matress is out side , if the smells gone its the matress, any how all matress should be aired at some stage or another it can't hurt

Try sprinkling baking soda all over the carpet (don't let the kids in!) leave for a few hours and vacuum up. See if it doesn't help a bit. Or carpet refresher that is powder form absorbs odor molecules too.

if you have a "chem-dry" franchise in your area have them clean your carpets. if not try replacing the carpet & padding and maybe even the beds. why does it smell like yerin in the first place? do you have pets? maybe the kids are still peeing somewhere in the room. vinager also works to neutralize oders

CPS came to your house because it smells like pee...

I guess you could be a smart @$$ and tell them to try to get rid of the stench.

I've never had that problem... put one of those febreeze cd smell player things in it...

That makes my room smell like nothing but good.
