So we just purchased a new couch and have had it less than a week. We had the stain spray stuff put on it and has a warrenty. The warrenty covers pee stains - but we cleaned the couch as directed and there is no stain - but the couch smells like pee now! Ugh!!!

It is microfiber fabric. What can I do to clean the smell out?

Thanks!

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

I called the warrenty people and i had to leave a message. Of course they say "it could take 48 hours before a returned call". Really? Grr... I am going to call the pet store and see what they hve to say about natures miracle.

Hi, I used SCOE 10x before with great success. It is labor intensive on a couch, but it works. I found it online.

I used a product called "Nature's Miracle" you get it at the better pet stores. Not sure if some place like Walmart carries it. They also offer a guarentee so keep your receipt in case your not happy with it. You may also have top use it 2 or even 3 times, but it worth the extra effort. I used it on carpet in my steam cleaner (we had a dog). Good luck. Wet it really good and put the cushion if possible in front of a fan to air dry.

Ask your vet about a product called Urineaway. It works great even after you have used other products. Just make sure that you use enough.

OMG! The same thing just happened to me!!! I have had my couch about a month and my dog just peed on it like 3 days ago, microfiber couch. Did they stainguard it before you got it? They did that to ours. They gave us a cleaning kit with ours, so I used the kit they gave us, cleaned it as directed and it came out. I don't think it smells. The dog didn't pee too much, she is only a little 4 pound Yorkie. Maybe I can look when I get home and let you know the name of the cleaner I used.

I don't know what this will do to your couch warranty, but I love Nature's Miracle. You get it at the pet store (Petco/Petsmart/etc.), and it's worth every penny. You'll need to soak the place where the, um, accident occurred, even into the cushioning. The NM has an obvious fragrance itself, but when it has dried completely, ALL the odors should be gone. If they aren't, then you missed a spot. Ask the store employee if there are any special directions for microfiber.

We have had cats and dogs for years and I keep this product's people in business. I even have a little black light for finding places I missed.

I'm sure your dog is sorry.

You may want to try white vinegar and water mixed together equally or just the vinegar, depending on the color of your couch. You may want to sample it in a nonconspicuous area. If this doesn't work, Nature's Miracle is great too for removing odors. You can find this at a pet store. Lots of luck!

Need a little more info - can the pillow the dog peed on come off? What is it stuffed with? The stain on surface is cleaned, but the pee soaks in so you will need to clean the cushion as well.

Baking soda........put it on before you go to bed and LEAVE it on and let it absorb the odor. Same principle as putting it in your fridge. Just vaccum the next day. It SHOULD do the trick. If there is still some residual.....get some of the RESOLVE stuff you use for pets.

Nature's Miracle is the best for pet stains/odors. Test it in an inconspicuous area first. I would also call on the warranty first, though, and make sure you aren't using any products that would void the warranty
