House smells of Dog Wee but can't find it?

Aaaaaaaaaah!

I'm fostering dogs for an animal charity - some of which are ex-breeders who have never known life in a home before and are not house trained. For the first few days/until I'm pretty sure they are house trained, they have the run of the kitchen and garden. However, we have had a couple of accidents on the carpet that I have quickly got bicarb or salt on to to soak up and then dabbed white vinegar on area to get rid of odour :money:

BUT ... my house smells :( and I'm pretty sure it's not coming from either of the 2 patches that I'm aware of and I can't pinpoint where exactly it is coming from :mad: :o

Can anyone help because after this lot of foster dogs goes I'm going to be working from home and can't have prospective clients coming and smelling a house of wee :eek:

    I think you're going to have to take some kitchen paper and dad every square foot you can - either than or walk about bare foot till you find it.......... Concentrate on the hard to get to areas - behind settees etc......
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.
