What is the best remedy for skunk spray?

The recipe we recommend here at Fisher Glen Animal Hospital is: 1 quart (or litre) of hydrogen peroxide, 1/4 cup of baking soda, and 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of Dawn liquid dish soap. Use an open bucket and mix all the ingredients together. Rub the mixture well into the fur. Always shield your pet's eyes to prevent the mixture from getting in and irritating them further. Leave it on 5-10 minutes, then rinse well. Repeat if necessary.

What should I do if my pet is sprayed by a skunk?

If your pet gets skunked, the first thing you want to do is make sure that they are physically fine. Make sure to check for scratches or punctures, and thoroughly check and rinse their eyes and nose. If there is a scratch or puncture it is always best to see your veterinarian, who can help your pet to avoid infection and make sure they are up to date on their rabies vaccination. If your pet is physically fine, the smell can be removed using the following recipe: 1 quart (or litre) of hydrogen peroxide, 1/4 cup of baking soda, and 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of Dawn liquid dish soap. Use an open bucket and mix all the ingredients together. Rub the mixture well into the fur. Always shield your pet's eyes to prevent the mixture from getting in and irritating them further. Leave it on 5-10 minutes, then rinse well. Repeat if necessary.
