The only real solution is to see a Vet or Doctor and get some antibiotic 
capsules. Open these up and sprinkle the powder over the affected area. This 
will kill the bacteria which causes the smells.
I had a similar experience with a BMW 735 a few years back where milk got 
spilled into the vents on top of the dash and ran into the aircon system. 
That *stank*. Nothing worked. Fevreeze, air fresheners, bleach.. Nope . No 
use at all. Only the antibiotics worked.

The trouble is its got into the internals (springs etc) which powder 
probably wont reach.

Search online breakers or eBay for a replacement seat.

You won't get rid of the smell of mouldy milk, ever.

Try Simple Solution Stain and Odour remover from Pets at Home (or
other pet shop).

http://www.simplesolution.com/products_uk/so_remover.html

We used it to remove some very unpleasant smells from the carpet
(young female dog) and although the smells seemed to get worse for a
couple of days, all of a sudden they were gone.

Prior to this, we had tried white venigar and baking soda. They helped
a little, but the smell would return.

Based on my experience, I would go for the simple solution. Put loads
on and wait a few days.

An aquantance of mine did. He removed a cloth upholstered seat 
and cleaned it with a steam cleaner. Hot and high pressure with 
detergent at first, followed by a thorough high pressure rinsing 
using plenty of water. Seat took a long time to dry, but the 
smell had gone, and the seat wasn't damaged.

Take the seats out of the car, take the covers off and wash them, and 
wash the foam in the bath?
