Once you get all cleaned up the best that you can, spray on some Camp Dry or Scotchguard. It will keep the wet dirt from soaking into the carpet in the future.

This is why I can't wait to get my hands on a carpet shampooer.

Related: I know this isn't the Maintenance section, but is a shampooer safe for the wires and ground busses underneath?

Wow, I've just made a command decision, when I get my car, I am completely stripping it and cleaning it.
