Crappy Carpet Woes

When we moved into our appartment on post we get to "inspect" the place before we accept it. When we came into the place i noticed a weird smell, I wasn't sure if it was the paint or if it was the carpet or if it was the air ducts but we looked around the apartment and picked out the noticeable problems and wrote them down. The carpet in the living room has this large line of bleach coming from the front door to the kitchen, but that was all that was noticably wrong with the carpet... or so we thought. Almost immediatly after we started moving our things in and getting situated I started to notice large stains appearing on the carpet as if out of no where. We are pretty good about not tracking things on the carpet because we remove our shoes when we come in the door for the most part. But these stains were just there. We vaccumed so many times to see if that would help and everytime we vaccum we pull up the nastiest stuff. The first time we vaccumed after we moved in the bucket was full of a powdery substance and hair and carpet fibers. To me it didn't seem like the carpet had been cleaned before we moved in. So we contacted the housing office and they seemed to be less that enthusicastic about helping us with our carpet, but the sent out the maintanace supervisor to come and take a look. He looked at the carpet and then asked how long we had lived here. He kept making comments about its not our fault we clean the carpets between each tennant and they do a good job and he has never heard of stains coming up out of no where. Well after all the grumbling her still let us have the carpets cleaned again. I didn't see the point in making such a big deal that it wasn't his fault. I wasn't blaming him. So the carpet was good after they cleaned it again but there is that smell that I mentioned earlier. The smell didn't go away. I also discovered that everytime my face come in close proximity of the carpet (laying on the floor, playing with my puppy, etc..) I would get a head ache and well the carpet doesn't have the best smell either. Well I have allergies to animals most especially cats. I get headaches and get congested and scratchy eyes... typical allergy stuff. SO i went to the housing office AGAIN to see if they could tell me what time of pets the previous tenants had. Well they cant but I told them about my allergies and how the carpet in our living room is causing issues. Well once again they seemed less than enthusiastic but they took my number and said they would have someone contact me. Well they didn't so Colin got mad and went to the office and basicly told them they were going to fix it one way or another. Our housing office just moved to a new building and they have decided that they are just too busy to deal with it right now so we just get to wait while I can't even stay in our living room for extended periods. FOR THE LOVE!!

A little side not about my allergies and my puppy. In case you were wondering why I got a puppy but am allergic to animals. I will explain. We bought a Yorkshire Terrier. Yorkies are the most hypoallergenic breed of dog you can basicly get. Colin did some research and found out that the yorkies coat is most like human hair so it doesn't produce much dander if any. And they are a small breed most small breeds are fairly hypoallergenic.
Just thought i would throw that in there.
