Sorry to hear about your carpet soaking. Hope all is going well.
I flooded my office last month with 5+ gallons during a sump-bulkhead test. Thankfully it was only freshwater, but I still had to pull everything out of the sump room and dry the plywood floor, underlay and carpet. And this only 1 month after new carpets.
My wife was pretty closed-mouthed about the whole thing. Needless to say she was not impressed, but at least it wasn't saltwater
