Poor skunk,
Good luck with the smell you can wash and get the worst part off but be prepared to have residuall smell for a LONNNG time.

You might try boiling mint leaves or essential oils in a big pot of water that will help with the smell inside while you are figureing out how to get rid of the smell on youre person

Hey, what's that smell?

Glad we don't have skunks around here.

Thats what that smell is.

What we did for our dog is I covered her in tomato juice and left it on her. I mean just leave it. I didn't give her a bath for about a week.It took care of it.

I tried everyting too but the mistake I ade is I washed it out. I bought 2 bottles of the stuff from the vet to get rid of the smell and washed it out too soon. I was told by the receptionist that what she does is drench her dog or cat in tomato juice and let it dry for a few days. Well, my dog had smelled so bad for way too long so as soon as the weather broke and it warmed up and stayed dry I did it and it worked.

Poor baby thought she did something wrong becuse nobody wanted to be near her much less pet her. When we got the smell off we all made up for it. After all, she was protecting our flock when it happened. She chased it away. It was trying to dig into the coop.

Oh honey it'll be okay! I would be crying too!

Just keep trying things. I had a dog once that bit into a skunk's butt and got sprayed right into the mouth/nose/eyes. She needed to go to the vet because it was a severe eye irritant but they used some commerical skunk stuff and she was tolerable but you could still smell it somewhat.

Hang in there.
