Instructions

    • 1

      TRY NOT TO LET YOU PET GET INTO THE HOUSE AFTER BEING SPRAYED! ! !
      They will roll & rub all over everything making this job 100 time worse

      mixture #1
      GOOD OLD TOMOTO JUICE
      With the pet safely secured OUT SIDE THE HOUSE ,run to the store & buy 5 or 6 BIG cans of Tomato Juice.
      Get on some old clothes
      Get the hose running , Now cover your pet with the tomato juice. Let it sit on them for about 5 minutes & rinse with the hose
      Repeat as needed

      This seems to work good , not 100% , but it is better than nothing

      Mixture #2
      1 quart 3% Hydrogen Peroxide
      1/4 cup Baking Soda
      2 tbsp Dish Detergent.
      Double the amounts if you have a large dog

      Mix it in a large plastic bucket, because it will foam up big time. You are making an oxygen generator. Wash the dog/cat with this while it is still foaming, it is the oxygen which reacts with the thiols ( the smelly oil in skunk spray) to neutralize the odor. If you wait & it stops foaming it will not work. So mix it & wash you pet right away

      Don't try to store it in an airtight container, because it will blow up. The brew also works for clothes, humans , furniture & in carpets.

      You are going to be busy for a while. But you have no choice but to get it cleaned up right away or live with that smell for a month or more. It will go away eventually , but why live with the smell when with a few $$$ & a little work you can get rid of the smell

Tips & Warnings

  • Even after using mixture #2 , there is still going to be a bit of a smell for a few days , I use FABREZE. Spray it all around , even on the cat or dog , DON"T GET IT IN THEIR EYES , NOSE or MOUTH.

  • Everything including the dog & cat will smell MOUNTAIN FRESH.

  • If you come face to face with a skunk , DON"T FREAK OUT , Just move away . They really don't want to spray you , It is a last defence for them if they are attacked. They will probably run from you just as fast. The rerason your pet got sprayed is they suprised the skunk or they were messing with the skunk & the skunk had no other choice. To a dog or cat a skunk is a black & white play toy.

    I need a solution I can use in cold weather. I live in Upstate NY and it's too cold to bathe my dogs outside and can't afford (nor do I want skunk smell in my car) to cart them off to a vet for a bath. Any ideas?
