Hi L., I have had that happen to me and I use an organic cleaner called Basic H. I have used it to get gum out of my kids hair, gum out of carpet too. It's a Shaklee product, not sold in the retail stores. I'm a rep for the last 20 yrs. you can call me ###-###-####)or here is my website www.dianeshealthyalternatives.com
If you're interested let me know, I have more info on it: I use it to wash my vegies, 2 drops in a spray bottle is a window cleaner, etc. a Green product that saves me $. D.
