How to De-Skunk Your Dog

As soon as your dog is sprayed, mix the above ingredients into a large bowl. Mix about a quart of the peroxide and a half box of baking soda. Put in about an 1/8 cup of the dish soap.

Don't wet your dog down. Put the mixture on your dog while your dog is still dry.
Step 3

Let it stay on your dog for about 10 minutes.
Step 4

Rinse your dog. Reapply the mixture if your dog has really been nailed by the skunk.
Step 5

If after 24 hours your dog still has a skunk smell, give him another bath using the mixture.
