When living in Alton NH I had a long 300 foot driveway. One pitch black night I walked the driveway. I sensed something was sharing the driveway with me. Got about 3 feet from a striped animal, there wasn’t any smell but knew what it was. Retreated rather quickly and apparently it didn’t feel threatened, so we both went on our merry ways.
When stationed in the Air Force in OK & TX a few years the natives called them Polecats. But a Polecat is like a weasel, but that was called a skunk. The animals stunk like skunks and looked like them. Geographical naming.
Recently, a TV infomercial promoting an aerosol spray that eliminates many odors (some quite bad) quickly. Might be something to try for Skunk on yourself or animals. Do a search.
Noted some commenters said to use Tomato Juice and some commenters said it didn’t work. I side with those that said it doesn’t work. A better use for Tomato Juice (or Clamato Juice) is to mix it with Vodka on ice and read about Skunks on the OFA articles.
You can tell when spring is here. Many roads are known as Flat Skunk highway. Stinks as you drive along.
