My small dog recently had a losing encounter with a skunk (which also happened to spray the side of my house. I have received many suggestions (from net.misc) to use tomatoe juice/soup, but nothing really scientific. Are there any biologists or chemists out there who can tell us why tomatoe works (or does not work) or what skunk spray is made of and if it can be washed off??? We would appreciate scientific or first hand responses here rather than "Well, I heard on the TV that..." thanks in advance..
