Tomato juice does not work!

Use 1 quart 3% hydrogen peroxide
1/4 cup baking soda
1 teaspoon liquid soap (like Ivory or dish soap)

Get the dog wet and work the solution into his coat. Follow with a warm rinse with plain water. Discard any unused formula because the release of oxygen caused by the chemical reaction could make the container explode.

You can buy special deodorizers from either your vet of a pet store and that will help take the odour away but puppy will still need a bath and the best method for skunk stink is still in my opinion good old fashion tomato juice and it's a lot cheaper than and not as hard on puppy's skin as those other deodorizers.

You can buy stuff at a Pet Store to deodorize animals. If your in a rush and no pet store handy you can give it a couple baths with tomato juice. The acid in the tomato juice neutralizes the Skunk spray...The only thing detrimental is that your dog turns out PINK for a few days.The other dogs will think your dog is gay.....I've done it ...Nothing will kill the smell one hundred percent..

The easiest way is to mix equal parts of Hydrogen Peroxide with water and then add about 1/4 of a cup of Baking Soda per cup of water, and then a tablespoon or two of liquid dishwashing detergent. Mix well and apply to the dog, then let it sit for 10-20 minutes, and then rinse well. You may need to apply again, but it works much much better than tomato juice.

My dachshund attacked a skunk and it took months to get rid of the smell. Don't bother with tomato and lemon juice or vinegar. I ended up getting a product from my vet. But for months, anytime Bonnie was wet or damp, you could smell the skunk.

Good luck!

Bathe him in tomato juice. It will take a lot but it's worth it! Rub it very good into the fur all over and let it sit for 10-20 minutes. Repeat if necessary. This is the only thing we found to work on animals and humans.

Scope mouthwash. This was recommended by a vet and it worked great for us when our dog was sprayed by a skunk.

Luckily, I've never had to do this & hope that I never have to do this, but I've heard that Tomato Soup works, even Listerine (? - I would research that one), and check your local pet store for some sort of skunk removal-specific shampoo.

Good luck.

Wash the dog as much as possible. It will take a while but it should work.
