Have a woman do it. They've been cleaning carpets and folding laundry their whole lives. They'll know what to do, it's instinct.

women arent meant to be maids

but back on topic, you can use GM carpet dye to just dye out the stains, make sure the carpet is very clean and dry before applying

I use this stuff but I also connect a scrub pad onto my porter cable and go to town with that... works perfect!
