I keep getting yellowish streaks on my khaki colored laundry. I have city water. Is it the chlorine in the water? Is there any way to get it out after the laundry has been in the dryer? Please help!

We tried the Nature’s Miracle enzyme cleaner and steam cleaning to get dog urine smells out of our carpet. It helped but didn’t take it away completely. Are we doomed to just tear up the carpet and start over? Or is there a last ditch effort we can try to banish the smell for good? As it stands right now, you can only smell it if you have your nose right up to it but if we can smell it then the dog surely will and we don’t want her to be tempted. Has anyone tried anything that got rid of the odor for good?
