Martyn, she is a tiny baby, she is only 8 weeks old you say - and she isn't weeing there on purpose - its because, now that she has weed there, it will smell as if it IS the right place! Get some biological washing powder - Ariel, or Persil Bio, and wash the carpet with that - don't use disinfectant or bleach, or it will reinforce the smell. Take her outside, about every 30mins or so, praise her when she does wee outside, and IGNORE it when she wees inside - just pick her up quick if you see her starting, put her down outside, where you want her to go & tell her Good girl!
She will learn - but she is only a tiny baby at the moment.
