Did you see the skunk climb the fence? I had a pet skunk and he couldn't climb anything. Not saying they can't, just know that skunks are heavy of body and have short legs and they are very near sighted. That is why you see so many dead on roads. Also, for those who don't know, skunks do a little hand stand when they spray. If you see one start to stamp their front feet and starting to do little hand stands, go the other way! That is probably why they don't spray when they are in the trap cage. Let me know if you saw the skunk climb the fence.
