on 9/22/2009 All those things work but are not as effective in completely removing the odor like doggiCleen skunk spray. By bathing the animal you spread the skunk oil through the fur which just compiles the problem. The acid from the tomato juice tends to dry out the dogs skin which can lead to other problems. doggiCleen skunk spray is better for the dog’s skin because it doesn’t dry it out. It’s what my vet uses and recommends and it comes with a money back guarantee. I am a dog lover myself and I also highly recommend it.
