If you don’t want to go that route Woolite in a spray bottle works great and you truly don’t need to do any scrubbing.
Awesome brand concentrate found at the dollar store works surprisingly well!
Our cleaning crew uses Spot Shot and it's very effective.
I mix a cup of oxygenated cleaning powder like OxyClean or Awesome Orange (my favorite) with a bucket of warm water. Apply liberally with a soft t-shirt and rub until the spots come up. This solution is so effective that I use it in my carpet steam cleaner instead of the commercial shampoo.
As you can imagine anytime you use a soap products on carpeting it is impossible to get all the soap back out. Soap actually attracts more dirt. I have found that ordinary club soda is a marvelous product for spot cleaning carpeting. It never leaves a residue.
