Christ, there I was running around the truck trying to grab the dog as he's barking at this skunk who is doing the twirly dance keeping his butt toward the dog. If I got remotely near the dog he'd scoot under the truck - still menacing the skunk and then to the other side of the skunk barking away - all of this at 12:30 in the morning. I'd run around the truck hollering at the dog (he hears BLAH BLAH BLAH COME HERE BLAH BLAH). This goes on a few times and the skunk decides to get under the truck himself. The dog goes in - and suddenly the barking stops - and he comes out squinting (I know, I didn't think a dog could squint either), sticking his tongue out, shaking his head and heading for the house.
After that is was a plain ole chemestry experiment up in the tub with the dog. I think that the orange cleaner stuff for floors was what worked the best. I DON'T recomment oven cleaner.
Today the boy will have to ride his bike to the store and get something on the list that you folks have provided. Maybe the vet has a special sauce. Some on the internet are suggesting Massengill douche - maybe I'll get the boy to buy that.
