Be sure you live in an area where it is legal to discharge a firearm before shooting the fox. You can try baiting a live trap or leg trap with the dead biddy. I use a live trap for predators. Then I put the entire trap in a garbage can and head to the grocery store and buy a couple of blocks of dry ice and put them in a cheap sytrofoam cooler that fits inside the garbage can, over the trap.
I put a piece of cardboard over the trap, just large enough to keep the dry ice from burning the predator and small enough to allow the CO2 vapor from the dry ice to drift down to the predator. I then tip the dry ice into a steel bowl on top of the cardboard, add a cup of hot water, and put the garbage can lid on as tightly as possible. I come back in an hour and take a quick look to make sure that the dry ice is still evaporating, if not, I add more hot water. The CO2 asphyxiates the predator, which you may then process or dispose of as you see fit.
Some people use the CO2 dispensers used for beer kegs to achieve the same effect.
I don't use leg traps because I live in California where you seem to need a trappers license to set anything other than a mouse or rat trap. It is illegal to even use dead traps if you aren't a trapper in California.
