One of my best friends passed on her very nice microfiber couch to us last night. However... she has 3 Labs and the couch reeks. They are foster parents and I know she is a clean-freak and her house never smells like dog. But, the couch reeks like dog :) I sprayed it with Febreeze Pet Odor last night and it was a bit better this morning. How can I get this smell out for good?

    I'd try sprinkling it liberally with baking soda and let it sit on there a whole day or longer before vacuuming it off. Good luck!

    Most carpet cleaners have extentions for using on furniture. Try that with a pet odor shampoo as well. Should clean it right up.

    You may want to speak with a professional cleaning company who comes out to people's homes and cleans upholstery. I am not sure what that would cost (although certainly less than purchasing a new couch).

    If the dogs were regularly allowed up on the furniture, there are oils from the coat now in the fabric of the couch. Cleaning would remove many of them.
