when my kids were small %26amp; still crawling I used to use liquid tide as a carpet shampoo. I used plain white vinegar as the defoamer in the used water tank of the shampooer. much much cheaper than carpet shampoo %26amp; defoamer
you can use vingar or dishwasher soap
No, You'll never get the suds out!
don't do it!





simply buy some carpet shampoo and use 1/2 the recommended amount

Never thought of that but try it and let us know!
