Ish, this is so frustrating. A few weeks ago, I came upon something on the net about getting rid of the skunk smell. It said tomato juice didn't work but this did. I even read it to N, but neither of us remembers what it was. I'll try to think of it while I sleep, sometimes that works. I'm sorry about your ribs. Edit: it wasn't this: www1.excite.com I think it was this solution: 4. The following method works best when you know the exact spot where the skunk sprayed, such as your pet, clothing, walls etc. While potent, skunk spray can be effectively removed with some simple techniques. If your clothing smells, simply wash them using a strong detergent and for yourself take a shower. There is also a product you can mix yourself that has a remarkable ability to counteract skunk smell. It was invented by a chemist and has been used by a problem animal controllers with good success. The ingredients of the skunk deodorizer are 1 quart of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide; ½ cup of baking soda and 1 tablespoon of liquid dish or laundry detergent. Mix these three items in an open container. Never, Never put them into a container and then close the lid. The escaping gases could build up enough presser to explode the container. Never store this mixture. If you create it, use it. This formula is only effective for deodorizing items that have been directly hit with the spray. It won’t deodorize your room. Be careful it may discolor fabrics etc. I have learned about another solution: Lemon Juice. Pour or spray it directly on the site. (Just a warning though, lemon juice is acidic and could stain etc. clothing, furniture etc.) I understand that the results are instant. wildlifedamagecontrol.com Here''s one more, with big claims: care2.com
