First and foremost, have your cat checked out by your vet to be sure that there isn't something going on medically. Once that's ruled out and s/he feels that the problem is behavioral, then read on.
I swear this company should start giving me kickbacks because I've recommended their product so many times. Here goes: if you aren't opposed to medicating your cat, talk to your vet about Clomicalm. It's recommended for dogs w/behavior problems but it's been used successfully on cats. I've used it for my pee cats for a few years now and I've had no problems ever since and they've not had any nasty side effects from it either. I can understand your frustration; I had a lot of ruined furniture and awful odors in my house and I tried several things including various medications before my vet, out of desperation, asked if I'd be willing to try a product that's normally administered to dogs. Your vet will tell you that it isn't approved for cats and that's true but neither is ametryptilene but it's prescribed by vets quite often. My cats get 5 mg. of Clomicalm at bed time. I've not seen any accidents since I started them on Clomicalm.
To remove pet stain and odor, I've found that Urine Gone works best for me. You can find it at Bed Bath and Beyond and here in Ohio even in grocery stores. The affected area needs to be saturated w/the Urine Gone, scrubbed thoroughly, saturated again and scrubbed again. This will keep your kitty from spraying there again because it completely removes the odor and stain.
Good luck w/this and please let us know how things are progressing. Please don't have your cat PTS when there is a viable solution.
