Excellent recipe! In max 10 min the dog was clean and it was just a simple shower for her and for me! 👍

Thank you so much for making this video. I watched it at 12:30 in the morning when our long-haired duck tolling retriever got sprayed and then killed the skunk. I couldn't believe how badly she smelled and how this formula took most of the scent away. We did wash her afterwards with her own shampoo, and you can barely detect the skunk scent. Thank you!

FABULOUS! At 1:30 am my dogs raced into the house gagging and rolling and rubbing and STINKING. I panicked but managed to pull up You Tube in the midst of angst, found this how to video, ran to an all night store and got the stuff and whew, it worked. This video was so helpful, very matter of fact. I felt almost like a pro. Hopefully will not have a repeat

This actually works flawlessly! My boy got sprayed this morning and this was the first video I stumbled upon. Highly recommend this method. Thank yoy so much!

although you state baking soda, you display in the video baking powder. Baking Soda is the correct product to use

This combination works great! Saved my fur baby after she chased a skunk in our front yard. Thank you!

Thanks for addressing how to clean the face. We're going to try again using your method. Poor doggie still stinks after five treatments because we were told to avoid the face.

You are a peach and you saved my vacation. I did your treatment and it works wonderful. Thank you so much.

The skunk doesnt always win, My dog killed it

An important step before putting the mixture on their face is to use a dropper to fill their eyes with mineral oil. At least for our dog who was sprayed directly in the face. It allowed me to get the solution right beside his eyes without causing any damage or pain to him.
