Before you do that, have you had a professional carpet cleaner look at
it? We thought we'd have to replace some of ours after 6 or 7 years,
but had a guy come out and look at it, and he cleaned it successfully.
His method is, he starts with the very worst spot. If he can't clean
it, and you want him to give up, there is no charge.

Even if you can't find a giu with the actual try-it-and-no-charge
method, maybe you can find someone who will be willing to tell you if
it is worth trying, and if so it would cost you far less to try than a
carpet replacement. How perfect does it have to be, if he got 99%
out, or 90%, would that be enough?
