1. Cleaned (with rag).
2. Battered and beaten or otherwise left worse for wear.

The term originates from how a wet cloth or rag is twisted and wrung out of dirty water and left wrinkled. It is often used in analogy to either describe ones low physical well being, or to describe a harsh but cleansing lecture.
That needs to be ragged.

We were run ragged at work.
