Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Grow your own skunkweed, and you won’t care. * Tomato juice, haven’t heard of any newfangled cures or potions via the interweb. My brother in laws’ various mutts would all manage to have confabs with Newfie Kitties, they all defaulted to tomato juice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledInIllinois Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I heard oatmeal bath. Read this: Mix together: 1 quart of 3-percent hydrogen peroxide (available at any pharmacy) 1/4 cup baking soda. 1 teaspoon liquid dishwashing soap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She could NOT get in my car to go home. The GF went for tomato juice while I stayed with the stinky dog (keeping a safe distance upwind). Gave her a bath in a lake using gallons of tomato juice. After she dried off she smelled a bit like tomato juice, and a lot like skunk. But it was better than doing nothing at all. That’s one nasty stink, there! GOOD LUCK! .

The above helps but nothing other than time will help. Has to be Dawn too. Also after the above, you can spray diluted Scope too. 2 weeks ago we walked Buddy at Fuhrman Blvd near Times Beach preserve and he got sprayed BIG time. The worse thing is how to get it out of the car. Even without touching it permeates everthing.

The wife vetoed Bailey, that was the name of the little redheaded girl who threw up in her parents car when she was little. They couldn’t get the smell out, so they traded the car in.

Not at the table Karlos Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Neighbors dog got sprayed by skunk last year. Bathed her in gallons of tomato juice, ketchup, shampoo and a few other things recommended online. Nothing really worked and took a few weeks for the smell to go down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Mix half a bottle of 100-proof vodka with a quart of water. Rub it in to your dog's coat. Wait five minutes. Rinse well with soap and water. If it doesn't work, drink the other half. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gomper Posted September 29, 2019 Author Share Posted September 29, 2019 Thank you all for the serious replies. Peroxide bath did help. GF discovered that bowls of vinegar helps suck in the smell. The house smells like a dream lol. Thank God I'm going to the game :). What a fun weekend! Go Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
707BillsFan Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 I'm sure you figured it out, but hydrogen peroxide, baking soda and dish soap do the trick...along w/ Nature's Miracle Skunk to finish it off. We had to do this a few times before I felt comfortable. We have a fenced in yard, somehow a skunk got into the yard and sprayed one of my dogs. Horrible experience on a cool morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALF Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 (edited) Petsmart store product https://www.petsmart.com/dog/grooming-supplies/cologne-and-deodorant/natures-miracle-skunk-odor-remover-12624.html reviews also Then, we tried Nature's Miracle that evening -- meaning 12 hours after he was skunked. The stuff really works. It has the consistency of water and the 32 oz bottle was enough to get him soaked. We used a wash rag to do around his face area. Then, washed him with regular dog shampoo. There was still some lingering smell around his ears and nose. I went to Nature's Miracle website (the next day) and learned you can apply the supplemental coats with a wash rag and just let it air dry. No need to rinse or wash. That finished the job without having to wash him for the 6th time in two days. Edited September 29, 2019 by ALF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryPinC Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 I had luck with a lemon or citrus based shampoo, but had to wash him about 4 times before he was tolerable. You could definitely smell the spray stink in the suds so I know it was cutting it. Never tried the peroxide mix or pet store product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
