Pet Stain and Carpet Cleaner

What you need: 

1 Part Hydrogen Peroxide
5 parts water

What you do: 

You can really play around with the ratios, but the principle is the same.
1. Combine hydrogen peroxide and water in a spray bottle. (I use a spray bottle, pour in the amount of hydrogen peroxide I wish to use, and then add water to fill the bottle up. Give it a shake before each use.)
2. Clean any debris from the stain and soak up any liquids.
3. Spray the area generously with the mixture. (This works really well on my light colored carpets. I have also used it on clothing, couches, and hard surfaces. However, as hydrogen peroxide can have bleaching properties, test the mixture on a small and hidden patch of the surface you wish to clean before using the mixture.)
4. Let sit for 24 hours. The stain will disappear along with any smells.
Source of recipe: After figuring out what was in a natural pet stain cleaner, I decided to create my own.

SO HOW'D IT GO?

Oh wow-- this works great! Recently one of my dogs had some severe health issues, resulting in some of the most disgusting carpet stains imaginable... after going through 2 bottles of Resolve Pet Stain Remover in 1 weekend(!), I mixed this up instead of going out to the store in the middle of the night...  I didn't measure or anything, just filled the empty Resolve bottle about 1/4-1/5 of the way w/ H.P., & then w/ water to the top...& it worked BETTER than the Resolve! Now I feel like a chump for buying the other stuff, all this time... will use this from now on. Thanks!

Aww sorry to hear about your dog, hope she/he is feeling better.  Glad that it worked well for you and I totally had the same reaction when I figured it out!
