Wash dog, use rubber gloves - because the skunk oil could end up on you.

Rinse well...

Also - if the dog got in the house and it smells - put a couple of bowls of cider vinegar out and around.. Somehow it absorbs the stink.

The big old boy in my avatar cannot resist skunks.

This works great. Have had to use it several times. Just don't put in a closed container (jar, squirt bottle, etc.) because it will explode.

Watched a show on PBS last night about skunks. the noted authority on the program recommended your de-skunker as the best treatment.

He did recommend doing it outside because of the peroxide. He also said not to make this up ahead of time and to always use new chemicals.

We just adopted a shelter dog and have lots of woods behind us so I know our Raven will find herself a skunk at some point!

Thanks for submitting this--now I have it on my computer when I need it!
