I copied down the homemade skunk odor eliminator recipe a while back knowing that sooner or later it would be needed with our 2 dogs and at 0515 this AM it was desperately needed. I am impressed as it does works immediately like the recipe said it would. DH and I couldn't smell anything for sure so we brought out DD & DS and asked them to smell the dogs without telling them what to sniff for. All they could smell was "an Ajax cleaner type" smell.
I have always bought Skunk-Off from the vet to have on hand which works but it is expensive.
For those that don't have the recipe here it is:
1 pint bottle 3% hydrogen peroxide
2T baking soda
2t hand dishwashing soap (we had Dawn)
Mix together in a spray bottle and spray liberally.
It doesn't keep so it can't be made ahead of time but it takes only a minute to put together. This was enough for a bloodhound and a medium sized mutt with a little leftover.
Now I have to go buy more peroxide just in case their "friend" comes back tomorrow morning.
