If no gun, you will have to use a club to the back of the head..I know it sounds cruel, but does kill them very quickly and is very effective.
You want to hit them were the spine goes into the back of the skull. Make sure to use enough force to get the job done right. Hope this helps.
For skunks with out a gun..have fun...

I would like to say nice pictures here on this post.Many people feel trapping is cruel,most don't realize that leg hold traps do just that"just hold them".Many times if your quiet you'll find animals sleeping in your traps when you go to check them. Will
Render them unconcious first,then while they are out on their side put your foot behind their front shoulders and step down.This will collapse their lungs and they will die quickly and painlessly from cardiact arrest.
If your interested take a trapper course,even if you don't plan on trapping it's all good to know. Will
