The oil smell is still there but there's no time to do a second treatment. I placed workshop towels under the carpet and put back everything. Will try baking soda to bring out the oil stains after I come back from the trip.
Get some Oil Eater and use it full strength!!

Make sure it's not the pre-diluted one.

No worries, it's non-toxic and biodegradable. Keep it off glass (bitch to remove streaks) and can discolor HOT aluminum, but it doesn't leave stains on cloth. I have used it in the washing machine to clean oily work clothes.
