How do I get the smell out of a new rug?

I bought a new 5 x 8 rug from Target. It is nylon with a rubber-like backing. Pretty rug, but has a strong ammonia smell. I sprayed with Febreeze and am running the ceiling fan in the room but after two days, you can still smell it when you come through the door. I want to use this rug. Any ideas? Will it get better?
