I'm trying to figure out what product is best to use to pre-treat and scrub, then extract with water with my Bissel heated Little Green Machine?

Directly applied I use APC 6:1 after testing a spot.

I've used a variety, from Folex, to Kids & Pets, to Spot Shot...

Best I've found is Turtle Wax Power OUT! Oxy Upholstery Cleaner. Surprising, but true.

I've used DP and I like it a lot.
DP Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner lifts stains out of carpet and fabric using the latest advanced surfactant technology. (http://www.autogeek.net/dp310.html)
I received my GG and haven't tried it yet.
Griot's Garage Carpet Cleaner, carpet & upholstery cleaner, Griots Garage carpet cleaner (http://www.autogeek.net/griots-carpet-cleaner.html)

I'm sure if you try DP you won't be disappointed.

Folex, Folex and Folex....on really tough stains I have even used the concentrated Dawn....just dilute it and use wet and dry vac...

I think the extractor pretreatment is made to not create as many suds.

I have to agree with Wendell. Go with the Folex. When I started I used the BLGM and have now upgraded to the Aztec. (Best money I've ever spent.)

Do you mean dilute the Folex? If so, dilute it to what ratio?
