Help dog has been sprayed by a skunk!!!!

[mullers3acers]

Any remedies to clean her up and get the smell out of the house?
Dh let her in before he left for work now the house smells as bad as she does.

I don't know about the house, but I've found that douche powder (Massengil) works well. Mix it up with water and bathe the dog with it.

never expected to read that. ever.

i was going to say tomato sauce, but i have only heard that that works. but if you're out of massengil, it migt be worth a try.

I always get a shocked look when I offer that solution! LMAO

 

[Damummis]

I was going to say tomato juice or apple cider vinegar......

One quart hydrogen peroxide, 1/4 cup baking soda, 1 Tbsp. dish soap.

Or, Prell Rinse Clean shampoo.

Or, tomato juice or ketchup.

Or, vinegar.

Never tried any of them -- they are suggestions found in various threads here.

Our dogs have been sprayed a couple of times by skunks (they don't seem to learn

). The dish detergent, baking soda and hydrogen peroxide mix seems to be the best one out there. With our golden retriever, washing her a few times did the trick completely. With our black lab/golden mix, it helped but he still smells like skunk when he's wet, and it's been a few months! Good luck!

I've heard from multiple sources on multiple occasions that the product called "Nature's Miracle" works well, but I've never had to try it out myself, so I can't vouch for it personally.

Nature's miracle works......but, it's expensive and you must use it repeatedley(sp) the peroxide, baking soda, detergent works, twice depending on long hair or short and it's cheap. Look it up on discovery.com/mythbusters
