I have two cats and a dog that have made my off white carpeting rather unpleasant and have come to the conclusion that I need to purchase a steam/water cleaning vacuum to end the recurring trips to the store to rent the rug doctor. I am trying to decide the best one to purchase. I am willing to spend anything up to 0 because between the vomiting, hairballs and accidents, I will have use for it at least once a week if not more. What is most important is how well it cleans the carpet and reliability. Does anyone have a steam cleaner that they like? or suggestions for what to avoid? Thanks…

The spots look like black ink spots. They seem to be powdery because now they are all over my carpet. Is there an effective way to clean my carpet? Can steam vacuums help? Will I have to call professional cleaners to clean them? Any kinda help is appreciated!
Thanks
