Wipe up as much as you can with towels, etc then either rent a Rug Doctor steam cleaner with the attachments or borrow a steam cleaner and get the rest up that way. May as well steam the rest of the carpets while you have it!!

Just watch out while steamcleaning it. Repetitive steam cleaning can shrink some carpeting in cars, causing it to "peel up" from the edges. If you don't go crazy and try to overdo it, you should be fine though.
