Use a spray-on stain cleaner that is specifically designed to remove carpet problems like old gum. There are several industrial strength or specialty carpet cleaners which are designed to get rid of tough stains.

Goo-Gone Spray-On is another alternative. Goo Gone advertises itself as eliminating “gooey, sticky, gummy, greasy problems”. A bottle costs around $7.

De-Solv-It and Orange-Sol are two more citrus-based products that rid your carpet of troublesome stains. Both are known to break down gum stains.

I use a concentrate called Sol-U-Mel - you can only order it if a member of the company (kind-of like a Sam's Club or Costco Membership) but it is about $10 for the concentrate. It can be mixed with water for regular cleaning purposes, but just a dab of the concentrate will get out gum, blood, ink, red wine, etc... no problem!
