I use vinegar for lots of cleaning like mold. Baking soda will absorb the
smell of vinegar and it will vacuum up.
BTW, I'm only offering help too, I'm not the one with the oil spill.

Subject: Re: [CnD] oil on carpet
Bob, on google, I found a natural solution for getting oil out of carpet.
To 1 gallon of hot water, add 2 cups vinegar and 1 teaspoon borax.
Put just a little of this solution on a small area of the carpet first to
make sure that it doesn't damage the carpet fabric.
Then, liberally distribute the solution onto the affected area.
Don't worry about the vinegar smell, as it will go away as the carpet
dries.
When the carpet is dry, you have the option of spraying the area lightly
again with plain water and allowing it to dry. But you don't have to do
this if you don't want to.
Cut the vinegar and borax down to half, as well as the amount of hot water
if a smaller amount of solution is required.
Other than that, use a carpet shampoo with a Bissle cleaner. Or have your
carpet professionally steam cleaned.
I hope this will solve your problem.

The best stuff I've found for dissolving grease or oil is "Mean Green."
You
can find it at Walmart.
Don't confuse it with "Simple Green." Mean Green is much stronger. My
kids
have used it on their sneakers and it brightens them right back like
new.
A little goes a long way, but you will need to rinse with a sponge after
spraying.
