Sprayed by a skunk

Had a dog get sprayed by a skunk and its pretty bad. I've had two sprayed before and of course I washed them in tomato juice and let their collars sit in baking soda. I was just curious if anyone else knew how I may could fix the smell? Especially the collars.

Hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, and dish soap

Luckly haven't had the need to try this yet...but here's what I found with a quick search..


Here is the secret recipe that WORKS. Mix the following:
1 quart 3 percent hydrogen peroxide
1/4 cup baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)
1 teaspoon liquid soap or dish detergent
Mix these together and bathe ("shampoo" in or rub down) the spray victim thoroughly.
Be sure to use this mixture immediately after it is created, as it is unstable.
Let sit for five minutes and rinse with tap water afterward, and repeat if necessary.
For spray in the eyes, flush with water as soon as possible.


If you can't go to all of the trouble of buying hydrogen peroxide at your local drug store, then a 2% vinegar solution will help a bit. But please, don't bother with the old tomato juice tactic unless you want to smell like skunk + tomato.

Here are some additional tips:

Flush the eyes first, with a turkey baster, or garden hose, or just by pouring water out of a cup.

Before washing, wear rubber dish gloves and old clothes, and if possible, wash the dog outside.

Don't rinse the dog wet first. This solution will work better if applied directly and concentrated. The skunk spray is actually somewhat oily, and the detergent in the dish soap will help break up the oils.

Telstar is right. It is the only way to break down the spray.

skunk spray

The peroxide/baking soda/dwn liquid is the only remedy that will definitely kill the smell and you can get it done with one application if you leave it on the dog about 30 minutes before rinsing.

I take the dog directly to the car wash and it takes care of I would say 75% of the smell.

I recommend the lemon wax at the end...
