With all due respect, I think you really need to get some training under your belt.

As Derek says or put some prespray on a towl with something with a bit of weight to it and leave it tem minutes. Then see if any transfer.

Depending on what you are using, it's very rare to find a carpet with a loose dye.

i agree do some training, forums are good for information resources but just goin in and cleaning without the correct hands on training will result in trouble. its all about procedure like with most procedures skip a step and you will jump two back.
