Earth Friendly Products is also a great chemical-free and non-toxic household products company. They have a carpet shampoo and here are the details about it (taken from the website): Earth Friendly Products? Carpet Shampoo with Bergamot & Sage is the first-ever replenishable, ecologically sound rug cleaner, for use in hot or cold-water extraction machines. Entirely free of harsh chemicals, our Rug Shampoo has been created from an array of pure, natural ingredients ? no phosphates, chlorine, petrochemicals or toxins. One bottle of our highly concentrated formula will clean three average-sized rooms. Their website is http://www.ecos.com . FYI - if you fill out a short form on their website, they'll give you $10 in Earth Friendly Products printable coupons. (I personally use Earth Friendly Products and think they are great).
You can find Seventh Generation and Earth Friendly Products at just about any organics store, such as Whole Foods, or you can order through their website.
Hope this helps! Good luck!
