[QUOTE=Central Ohio Quilter;6169594]Our neighbor just came knocking at our door to ask for advice in getting rid of skunk smell. Last night a skunk followed their dog to the back screen door and sprayed through the screen, into their house. He said the smell is unbearable inside their house.
Their clothes, furniture, and everything in their house just reeks! He is looking for advice on how to get rid of the smell in the entire house. I told him tomato juice is supposed to work for the dog, but I didn't know about the whole house!
Any ideas or suggestions?[/QUOTE
i found a recipe in a news paper many years ago. it was from the University of California Ag Extension Office. it works. only thing i have ever tried that does.
quart of hydrogen peroxide, 1/4 cup baking soda, 1 tsp of liquid soap. i use dish soap, put all in empty gallon milk jug. have used this so many times and it has never failed. for your furniture and inside house try spraying surfaces, but make sure carpets & furniture will not be affected by the hydrogen peroxide. baking soda is maybe a possible treatment? the skunks aroma comes from sulfide products in it's perfume. baking soda, a base, may counteract the acid.
good luck!
