the trick to getting the milk stink out is getting it out of the foam underlayment below the carpeting. If you don't get that sucked out, it will linger for a long time.

I went through it with some eggs that broke on my rear floor.

An older car, so I removed the rear seat & lower door trim & pulled the carpet back exposing the metal floor of the car. I cleaned the metal floor with a light bleach mix, removed the foam underlayment, cut it loose & tossed it & bought some new foam at a local crafts store & then I shampooed the actual carpet from underneath, let that dry thoroughly, then did the top of the carpet the same way. Worked for me.
