Default What about bacteria on toys after eating raw diet??

Ok so here is my thought. In the kitchen we are very careful with food, not contaminating surfaces like cutting boards and counters when cooking with raw meats it is pretty standard concept because of salmonella on chicken and egg shells and bacteria on raw pork and what not. So how on earth can we feed dogs a raw diet. After they eat it they then go and mouth all their chew toys and stuffies. These toys go on the couch and all over the floor. Like a ball, wet with salmonella saliva right after a meal, rolls right down the hall....What would be the point of cleaning up in the kitchen. Kids sit on the floor with their own toys then lean with there hands on the floor or touch the dogs toys then go in the kitchen cupboards for a snack then lick there fingers....How can this work without everybody ending up ill? And getting the dog to drink water after isn't going to disinfect their mouths...Feeding raw makes sense to me but how can it be done safely...I don't see a way.
