Try an ice cube or goo-gone. Just be careful with the goo-gone because it may fade the color out of your carpet. Use it wisely.

Yeah, that's what my dear old Ma used to get gum off of our clothes. The ice will harden it and you can peel it off. It takes a while but it's effective!

the two most succesful things ive used is peanut butter, and a can of that dust off for computer keyboards. turn the can upside down and spray, it freezes it then you can usually take it out.
