Our cat got hit by overspray. She hated us for several weeks afterward, but she got bathed in tomato juice. And it worked really a lot better than nothing. Good enough to let her back in the house.
Our dogs got sprayed about 3 times each. I can vouch for the dawn, hydrogen peroxide, and baking soda wash, I was the one administering it. Then I found the den of skunks under the a/c slab. I trapped out and massacred that tribe. Since then, the smell doesn’t much affect me.
My wife and I span the range of responses to the smell of skunk. I find it mildly pleasant, a smell of rubber. She gags and shrieks. Neither of us can understand the other’s response.
When I was a kid, mom let the dog out, he got hit by a skunk. Ran back in the house and rubbed himself on the living room carpet trying to get the smell off. We had to get new carpet, 3 commercial cleanings couldn’t get it out.
my father was skunked in the face when he was a kid on the farm, he had to sleep in the barn for weeks and used up his parents canned tomatoes that was needed for winter food. Also, he was forced to go to school (one room), but the teacher made him sit outside by the window.

The University of Melbourne in Australia might be far enough away.

Pepe le Pew would resent this arc. Pogo’s Miss Mam’Selle Hepzibah, on the other hand, would describe it as a new Chanel.

Oddly, I have a very weak response to skunks. To my sense, it’s like the mild scent of new tires.

Don’t know what it is with dogs and skunks and porcupines. Squirrels too, but those encounters usually just end up in a shouting match.

Tomato juice, or so I’m told. Of course, then you have a tomato-juice covered dog that stinks of skunk.

Is that women the girl’s mother? If so, why does she have to explain the situation to her mother?

Dawn, hydrogen peroxide and baking soda in a water diluted mixture works good, much better than tomato juice.

Don’t worry. It’s just one full shedding long.
