Any ideas for getting a stink out of furniture?

My 3-year-old lost his supper (and pretty much the entire day's worth of food) on the couch last night. We scraped up the chunks (TMI? Sorry ) used carpet cleaner on what was left, and then Lysoled it. This morning it was still stinky, so we Febreezed the daylights out of it.

When I sit there now, I am greeted by the lovely aroma of flowery puke.

Any ideas for what else I can try?
