Dawn dish soap, hydrogen peroxide, and lemon juice has the best result for us. If it got a heavy dose it will take so soaking time. Hope this helps , I had a skunk dog a few years back getting rid off him sure made my collars and box smell a lot better. The wife was sure proud too, because I charge my collars in the laundry room.

2 suggestions

1) An enzyme product called Nature's Miracle available at pet supply shops

2) A variation on the formula above devised by a chemical engineer, described here:

whichever you use, rinse and reapply repeatedly until the odor goes down. the formula will bleach dog fur if it isn't rinsed off your dog.

Skunk odor is an oil, so you need to cut the oil. If you have a repeat offender, use a plastic collar rather than a leather or nylon one, or at least keep the leather collar well oiled so the skunk odor doesn't sink in. Nylon collars should just be washed with a lot of dish detergent.

I gotta agree...I have tried it all and some things help and make it better but there is nothing that will absolutely kill it. Especially if whatever got sprayed gets wet...the smell always comes right back and only time will do it these days. There used to be a product called "Super CD" that was the only thing that did ever work to my knowledge. But like anything that actually works it has to be taken off the market asap because some tree huggin democrat said it shouldn't be used anymore.
