I would steam clean the carpet. If you know anyone who is a carpet cleaner, then borrow their extractor.

If not, fill a bucket with the same soap you wash your car with. Make sure it has no wax in it. Use a wash mit and scrub your carpets. Take a dry towel and buff dry. Leave your windows down for about 20 hours and don't put your floor mats in either.
