How can I get rid of skunk smell?


Posted: Jan 19, 2012

Last night a dog chased a skunk under our deck and cornered him there!  The deck is right at our den and kitchen, and OMG, it smells to high heaven.  I have sprayed air-freshener throughout the house, but it is overwhelming in those rooms, where we spend a lot of time.  Any suggestions?

Anti Icky Poo. - Yes

Anti Icky Poo has enzymatic activity that will DESTROY the odor at its origins. It works on urine, vomit, blood, feces, and yes skunk "perfume!" I buy it by the gallon to keep on hand for hairballs on the carpet, etc. since I have two cats.

It's available at veterinary clinics and also online directly from the company.

Good luck!

If you get the smell on your skin while trying to remove it, wash your hands in a mixture of tomato juice and sugar. That takes care of it.

Hydrogen peroxide--better than - tomato juice. nm

Many years ago a skunk got in my house and it sprayed. I boiled cloves in water on my stove for a couple hours and it totally took the smell away, plus made my whole house smell great! Good luck!

How Do I Get Rid Of Old Cat Urine Smell?Sep 16, 2013
Long story short, we had a male cat in our house for 3 years. Before he was fixed, he sprayed or urinated everywhere. This cat has been gone for over 2 years (roommate moved out and got rid of cat because we did not want it after all that mess but he went to a very nice home so he is happy). Anyway, since the cat left 2+ years ago, we have repainted every room in our house with that Refresh paint, shampooed every carpet 2-3 times a year, threw out anything he peed on, ripped up carpet in the din ...

Loss Of SmellJan 30, 2015
Anybody had this or know of someone who did?  About 1.5 years ago I got a sinus infection, turned into bronchitis and I was sick for seriously four months.  Now, still to this day I have very little sense of smell.  My sense of smell may come back in very short spurts, and by short I mean 10-15 seconds.  I may catch a whiff of perfume or something and then right back to zero smell.  I can stick something as strong as coffee under my nose and smell nothing.  I can st ...

Onion Fingers SmellDec 15, 2014
Wish we had a food board, because on the gab board things get kind of heavy, but for anyone interested: Hubby and I chop onions all the time and have trouble removing the smell from our fingers, no matter what we do with soap and water. Well, I had read somewhere that putting salt on your hands/fingers and mixing with water to make a coarse paste works. And darn it, it works. It's not perfect, because the onion smell gets under the nails, but it sure takes the edge off. Just wet your h ...

Really, Pads Calling Attention To If You Smell?Jan 24, 2013
I wrote an email to a female product place the other day, would name the product but not sure if I can here. This ad is playing on TV like asking if during my period I would smell and another one I saw the person was saying something to the fact if she went swimming, could shark smell her and I am saying WHAT? I have countless years behind me, work in a profession that almost anything goes as far as what you hear but I sure do not want to hear about whether a women smells or not during her perio ...

Extremely Sweet Smell In House Tonight, But Why?Dec 15, 2009
I have been trying to run down this extremely sweet smell. My husband and I are home but I have been working and he has not sprayed nor used anything that would cause such a smell.

Is There A Way To Rid Cigarette Smoke Smell From Back YardsApr 04, 2010
We have a new neighbor who moved next door within the past couple weeks.  Our backyards are ajoining, and only within 5-10 feet of each other.  She smokes quite heavily and we can't enjoy our back yard because it smells like cigarettes out back.  Is there a product or anything I can do to get rid of the smell.  You would think that being out in the open the smell would dissipate but it doesn't.  It lingers and it stinks really bad.  It's getting to a ...
