My dog was sprayed by a skunk!!! What can I do?

Valley Cottage Animal Hospital Veterinarians: Rockland Count...
tsp. Liquid Soap Mix these together. Wet the pet. Wash with the neutralizer and make sure to work it in down to the skin. Rinse off with warm water. (do not put the pet in the sun to dry, it will bleach the fur). If the house has the odor, boil vinegar on the stove, this will help to subdue the odor. Also, please note that if your pet gets wet after being sprayed the odor tends to come out again.

This may have to be repeated several times. A commercial product called Orange-a-Peel has shown some success however personally, as the owner of dogs that were sprayed a total of 5 times this past year, the above recipe was the most effective. It is normal for the odor to return when you pet gets wet for several months.

What made you decide to get a skunk?

Domesticated Skunks 101 (Exotic Pet Care)
Well, as should be pretty obvious, we're both rather enamored by the Mustilidae family and, unfortunately, wolverines don't make good pets. But seriously, skunks are affectionate, moreso than ferrets, and they're larger. Larger was a big sell for us because we like big animals. However, Mephitis mephitis also seems to be smarter and less independent than Mustela putorious furo. I also have allergies to both dogs and cats, but I continue not to have allergies to anything in the Mustilidae family.

What if I see a raccoon/opossum/skunk out during the day?

Frequently Asked Questions
Although nocturnal animals are most active throughout the night, it is not an indication that something is necessarily wrong if seen out during the day. Nocturnal animals often DO come out during the day. Pet food, bird seed, and garbage can be powerful attractants. Weather changes also affect wildlife. A mother skunk or raccoon will often venture out in the daytime to take a well deserved break from her babies.

Guess that's pretty much a personal choice. If the aphids cause the plant leaves to roll or if their honeydew drips onto the deck, sidewalk or car spraying will be needed. Most of the common insecticides will control the aphids.

What if I sprayed my nest?

Free Yellow Jacket Removal: Frequently Asked Questions
I am sorry, but I cannot use it. Most of the time the homeowner calls me after they have sprayed. The reason is the spraying didn't work. If you directly hit the nest, you will kill it and everything else around it. You have killed your yellow jackets and hornets and many other creatures as well. Your body has absorbed these toxins and over time will kill you. Why do people think that the poison will only selectively kill the yellow jacket and hornet? It is poison. It is not intelligent.

How can I get rid of Skunk stink?

Balgownie Veterinary Hospital: FAQ September 2003
I was wondering if you had any good ideas to get rid of the smell from a skunk spray that is now on my dog because he thought they could be friends. If ya have any ideas i would love to hear about them. I used a baking soda, peroxide, and liquid soap combination and it worked ok but I was wondering if there was something better. Thanks a bunch. I imagine any of the good veterinary shampoos will do the trick, followed by a cologne type of coat spray. Have a chat to your vet for the best products.

Do you have to spay/neuter a pet skunk?

Domesticated Skunks 101 (Exotic Pet Care)
If you don't spay or neuter a skunk, they become aggressive and not at all fun to be around. An un-spayed/un-neutered skunk is not a good pet. It also endangers the health of female skunks to go into heat without being bred. We've heard of one case where a female skunk wasn't spayed early enough and went into heat and, despite heroic efforts to get her out of heat, she died within a year.
