I sopped it up with paper towels... should I do more? Will it ruin the carpet? Also, I'm getting a new puppy tomorrow... I don't want the nail polish remover in the carpet to poison it if he licks the carpet...
i wish your mom saved slightly the extra effective carpet so it is patched in view that she has bleached- no longer stained the colour. you would be able to ought to remodel or get a rug. maximum carpet is nylon and is stressful to dye back.
Remove all kind of stains from your carpet using good quality carpet steam cleaning equipment.
I would suggest renting a carpet washer to clean up any excess. Polish remover does evaporate though, so you may notice a lot more of the smell in the air as it does if you don't clean the carpet. Polish remover - especially acetone polish remover - is a solvent and if the carpet is synthetic, it may cause it to break down and melt, though you'd probably have noticed that effect already. I know that it will dissolve certain finishes on wood surfaces though...
