How to take care a wool rug ?

I have a large wool rug, its ivory in colour and around an inch thick, 5 ft wide and 7ft long, its not dirty with stains but just looks a bit grubby to me and picks up all sorts of fluff etc, i hoover it everyday as the fibres off it get everywhere ! even though the label says not to hoover it, it would be impossible not to ! they are static and stick to the hoover and the tv, the rug is approx 4 months old.
The lable states -
100% pure new wool pile, do not hoover, do not dry clean, do not bleach, colourfast,

My questions are -
How do youstop the static fibres being lost ?
How can i make it look not so grubby ?

Any ideas are appreciated !
washing machine is out of the question due to its size !
