glad you got your situation taken care of.
just wanted to share a tip..... this will sound dumb, but i've had success with the most stubborn carpets.

a couple times, i've simply put them in a deli cup, and gone for a long car ride... kinda like you do when your baby won't stop crying. i'm not sure what it is about it, maybe it just takes them out of their comfort zone enough to trigger the instinct after being in a small box?
