Vinegar and water is great for a lot of things.
I've used the Resolve brand for dog cleanup and it worked fine until one summer when we had exceptionally high humidity with high temps, then it came back. -

First I suck all the pee up with my Bissell Little Green ProHeat TurboBrush - Pet. Then I soak the spot with a cleaner you can get at places like My Organic Market or Common Market - health food stores - it's called Bac-Out stain and odor eliminator and it works great, it's also natural, non-toxic and environmentally friendly. It doesn't stink either, it smells like lime. After about 30 minutes I then suck up all the liquid with the machine. The machine is a more advanced version at the Little Green Clean Machine only it has more features. The machine and the Bac-Out work great on furniture too. I know all this sounds like a lot but we didn't have any problem with repeat visits to the same location if you know what I mean…. Believe it or not, the Bac-out even worked on cat pee!!

Nature's Miracle is the best out there. Works on everything…even red wine in white dress shirts. LOL

I use Natures Miracle as well.
It does work, and I have yet to have the pee smell come back.
Do let us know what you decide. -

I have never had the smell come back with vinegar and water… and certainly cheap enough... and not only had more then enough practice with puppies, but with my elders also....

Well I went to walmart to get the Natures stuff since I have seen it there before…. they didnt have it... so i got some stuff made by Hartz for dog urine. I have to try it out. If it dosent work then Thursday after i take her to get fixed i will go to petsmart since i was soo busy today with trying to get her into a vet for her supposive ring worm. Ill let you know if this stuff works though I am gonna give it a try later tonight.

Use vinegar and water in the meantime.

Nature's Miracle works great on smell, but on sunny days I can still see the stain.
I purchased a Bissel little green for accidents, but haven't had the chance to use it yet. (Accidents here are few and far between…I get more bile/stomach yaks than pee...thankfully, only 1 big pee on the new carpet...don't know which one did it, and both were vetted immediately...no problems...it was either a dog that was really pissed off {no pun intended}, or a rainy week that I didn't walk the older boy long enough)
What's the vinegar and water ratio? warm, cold, hot water? Good on wool?, or just synthetic?

Vinegar and water is good on any surface that I have used it on over the years… and I think safe for any surface/material.... When I have puppies, I keep a spray bottle of 1/2 and 1/2.... then when I had all elders in the house maybe 1/3 vinegar and 2/3 water.. I would start out with warm water, but since I just left the bottle sitting around.. it was really room temp. I found that the elders pee was much less concentrated then the pups.. so lots less smell... however puppy pee is way smaller in size... ggg
