Is your cat fixed? If not she will likely keep on marking no matter what you do. I actually had to move one outside years ago because of this problem.
Hope you get your delima resolved.

I have had cats for years - all was fine until we got a second one and then the territory-marking began! I have tried every product out there and have had only very limited success - some cleaning products remove the color from the carpet. The urine often can stain/bleach the carpet anyway. My rug guys say 1/2 water and 1/2 vinegar, but I have found the results to be so-so. Sorry for your frustration - I would just say get it up quickly and perhaps put foil around the spot so when your cat tries to go in that area again, the crinkly noise will scare her away (hopefully to the litter box!) I love, love my cats, but.....

Sprinkle baking soda on it and let it dry and then vacuum it up.

The bad thing about wood floors is in between the floor planks urine can get trapped so you are in the same boat and forget about getting any smell out of that. Sorry to put a wrinkle in your remedy I have wood floors thoughout my house so I know of what I speek other than I have dogs that decide they need to mark. I guess if you get new floors don't have pets. I love my pets too much.

Try Odo Ban from Sam's Club.

The only way to get rid of the odor completely is to rip out the carpet and floor all the way to the sub floor. Use Kilz and replace. Other animals will always be able to smell it if you don't.

This may not be of interest but ask yourself why she is marking her territory. If this is something new for her, she might have a urinary infection or some undetected illness. Even dental problems can cause such behavior. Been there and done that and will replace all carpets when furr buddies are gone and grandkids are grown. (P.S. I use Nature's Miracle from Petsmart.)

if you decide to pull up the carpet and put a wood floor down you need to paint your subfloor with the paint that nullifies odor, I forget the name of it but they have it at all paint store and Home Depot and Lowes. My dd used it on flooring that the previous owners had a cat room. They pulled up the carpet and painted the floor then had it recarpeted...she said so far no cat pee smell.
