Baking soda absorbs smells quite well, and do you have zoflora, a floral disinfectant very strong to disguise the smell.

Be careful using Zoflora around dogs - I recall reading it contains something that is quite dangerous to dogs? We used to use it a lot and stopped for this reason.

It's OK once it dry but obviously don't allow an animal to lick it. We use it on the grass along the side of our caravan for some reason where Mollie has chosen as her favourite wee spot was becoming very stinky but the zoflora does the trick.

Only thing I ever found worked on skunk was tomato juice, make sure to put it on thick and let it sit on there as long as possible, it also might take a few goes with it. I do not miss skunks or porcupines either when it comes to dogs!

Good luck getting rid of the smell!
