Well, after 33 years of owning dogs...

When Zoee got skunked I didn't realize she got it until I had already let her in my brothers house. She began to rub her face on the carpet trying to get it off. So my brothers house smelled like skunk for a while. He shampooed his carpet about 10 times.
I got the smell under control enough that Zoee did not have to stay outside. She just wasn't allowed up on the big bed for several months. Even that morning (4am) that it happened I kept her in my nieces room with me to get a couple more hours of sleep.
I've smelled tons of skunks, dead on the road or the scent from far away. Nothing, and I mean nothing, is like the fresh smell of skunk. Zoee doesn't like baths, but she willingly hopped right in the tub that morning.

Then almost two years later we were driving and I hit a fresh skunk that was dead in the road. I turned back to look at Zoee in the back seat and she had this look on her face like - Oh no, not again. Or - I didn't do it!!! It was a very sad face. hee hee

Just keep bathing him. And remember the smell will always be there when he gets wet for several months to come.

Oh NO!!
I'm so sorry.

I hope something works soon to make the smell go away!

Has Boone lost his stinky smell ? I hope you've found something that
gets rid of the smell quickly so he can come inside again.

Nope. He's absolutely horrendous. When he is in the house, he's confined to his kennel. The room that his kennel is in is just absolutely unbearable. He and Kersey slept indoors last night but Boone, of course, has to be in his kennel. He's outside all day and at night I let them in and he can sleep inside where it's cool and comfey. I have no idea when the smell will get better. Right now it's so disgusting I can't stand even touching him or having him in the same room as me.

We used a whole bottle of Skunk Remover made by Nature's Miracle I think. No improvement at all. Used a whole bottle of doggie shampoo and I added tea tree essential oil to it, no improvement. Used 1/3 bottle of dish soap, no improvement. Used baking soda/peroxide/dishsoap and no improvement.

I am at a loss as to what else to do.

Oh wow, poor Broone & poor you too. He must have gotten a really
good dose of spray. Does your Vet have any suggestions or does it just
take time & baths?

Do you have a State Forestry or Environmental Control Agency, or a Warden (not the prison kind-he already has enough skunks)?. I say that, as silly as it may sound, because when we had way too many destructive groundhogs in our entire neighborhood a few years ago. we called the SPCA who gave us the name of a retired Forrest Ranger, who knew everything there was to know about critters. It's worth a try.

I feel so bad for you, esp. being pregnant. Talk about morning sickness..how about all day sickness. Poor Boone.
