Since nobody here knows the pesticide composition of what was applied,
I would call the exterminator about the stains. The residue (stains)
may be needed (for the recommended time) to repel any pests.

Most carpeting is colorfast. Test carpet with carpet shampoo in a
closet or other inconspicupuis place. Wait a day and carefully
inspect the carpet for any color change.
