The dog puke enzymes made its way past the carpet into the padding. You're gonna have to remove carpet and do a steam clean several times. Don't do it in car, whatever moisture is left over, mold becomes an issue. Also give the backside of the carpet (rubber part) a good clean with bleach and water. After carpet dries up, take a whole can of lysol and spray the bitch out of it.

Take the seats and carpet out of the car and wash with blue Dawn dish liquid and water. Use a hose to rise. If you don't want to get the seat rails wet, remove them. Then take a shop vac and suck out the excess water and let air dry for a few days. You may have to repeat the washing processes if it's really nasty. I've gotten smell tranny fluid and used engine oil out of seats/carpet using this method. It works.

Great advice,hank
I have done this too.It works great if you suck enough water out and let them dry THOROUGHLY.
They will only be damp if you have a good shopvac...then set them out in the sun to dry on a nice hot day or 2
