Allow fresh air to come into the room and alleviate the stench. If possible, open any windows, doors, or even use a box fan to maximize airflow. You can also neutralize the air to get rid of any lingering odors. Consider using a dehumidifier, an air filter, or even an open box of baking soda.
Enzymes break down odor molecules, organic materials, and eliminate the disease. Wearing gloves, use an enzyme cleaner to spray down the area. Bac-Azap, Bioshield, or Nature’s Miracle are some products that could work. Then, let the solution sit for 10-15 minutes before patting down with a rag.

Take note that these are good resources for getting rid of odor, but shouldn’t replace an enzyme-based cleaner. Only enzymes can break down fecal matter and properly sanitize your carpet.
