Okay, so my oh-so-intelligent dogs (Yes, BOTH of them) just got sprayed by a skunk. YUCK.
How do I get the smell out of their fur?? Tomato juice? Or do I need to use something else since they are animals?

For a first try...tomato juice for sure... if not..There is a product you can buy at most pet stores called SkunK Be-gone (I'm not kidding).
Get a couple of bottles of it. One for each dog.
or try the Homemade recipe....
Take 1 quart of 3 percent hydrogen peroxide (available from any drugstore), 1/4 cup of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate for you science types) and 1 teaspoon of liquid soap, such as Ivory. Mix and immediately apply to the stinky pet. Rinse thoroughly with tap water.
(do not try to save or put in a container any extra solution...it is not a good idea!)

I,m afraid the only answer is to bathe your dog in Tomato juice ! It's the only thing that works. Not pure tomato juice, I think you can water it down . I know people who tried all sorts of things, and ended up using tomato juice. It worked quite well, and was quite painless to all concerned. I can tell you LOVE those dogs, and that your capacity to love seems to know no bounds. oxoxoxoxox

Along with the tomato juice, I would get some Tea Tree Oil.

I would wash them with a detergent dish wash first, them with a lot of tomato juice. When I was a Vet Tech that is how we did it with the skunk smell. Good luck!

Tomato juice doesn't work very well. Massengill Extra Cleansing Douche works much better. Seriously.

You could just go to a pet store and ask for Skunk scent remover.

Go to the vet and ask them. Our vet has a lotion that helps get the stink out. I don't think there is anything that will remove it completely. Just have to let it wear off or take them to a groomer and have them shaved! Last resort

i have always heard tomatoe juice is best, its not like a chemical or anything so I don't think it would hurt them, just be really messy!
