It is very difficult to steam clean with a standard home use machine. You may be able to get like stanley steemer to do it fairly cheap. or you could power wash it. I tried to steam clean my old carpet and what I thought was dirt turned out to be thin spots. It may be cheaper to get a new carpet though. Just my $.02.
