I think this has been asked before and I believe the general consensus was new seating and covers

Caravanning is a way of getting a cheap holiday out of an expensive hobby

Rug Doctor would probably do a good job - think it's £30 for 24 hours plus the special pet smell remover stuff

DO NOT use febreze it will make your seats moldy if they are left wet.steam is not a good idea as it will destroy your fabric make up and make it hard to touch.i know i spilt boiling water on ours and have a two inch hard patch on the seat.best to get a professional cleaner in to do it.worth the money in the long run.

why not put them in the garden and give them a good hoovering some nice fresh air .

then buy some nice covers for them i always use covers anyway.

if not go to a local dealer and ask what they do with the second hand vans they sell.

Try no vac carpet and upholstery spray. I Have 4 dogs and it works brilliant.

Like you I hate dog smells, and my lot get bathed regularly. They are old english sheepdogs!!!!
