seemed to do the trick
it's just baking soda and essential oils. some people think this means it's not worth buying. but I needed something that wouldn't hurt my dogs, and a lot of this supposedly "pet safe" carpet crap has silica and other things in it that actually DOES cause pet health problems. this was effective, and my dogs were unaffected by it. I call that a win. however, now that I know this, I'll be making my own with bulk purchased baking soda and the essential oils. it's a good combo of fragrances, not too "floral." but for those of you who can't be bothered making their own, I'd recommend going with this product.
