Now that you have it clean, you might be able to maintain it with an at home dry-cleaning kit. I have used these for several years for my sweaters with great success. There is one brand, Dry Cleaners Secret, that does not require you to put the item in a bag. You just put the item in the dryer with the dry-cleaning sheet (looks like a giant fabric softener sheet) and tumble dry for about 20 minutes. When you pull it out, it is all clean and fresh smelling. They sell the sheets, both individually and in a box, at Albertsons.
