Break the acidity down by rubbing Powdered Baking Soda into the carpet. Wet lightly and rub it in some more. Let dry and vacuum. Repeat about 3 times.

Gas station. Pump gas. Don't realize you stepped in spilled gas. Get back in car. Drive with feet on (carpeted) floor mat on (carpeted) floor. Not really hard to imagine. Happens all the time. Very good ideas. Thank you.
