RE-ACTIVATE YOUR SKUNK BAG!
You can re-activate your case by putting it in the dryer or using a hair dryer on high heat. The heat from the dryer will break the bonds with the odoriferous compounds. The odor compounds are released and the activated carbon is as good as new.
Use a damp cloth with a bit of mild detergent and wash by hand. Do not use a washing machine, because this might damage the waterproof layering.

6. Keep in mind that up close skunk odor smells like burning rubber or hot asphalt when it first hits the dog. If your dog is light in color, you may notice a yellow tint to the area that was sprayed.
Unless the clothing is a cherished piece- toss it, because the smell is hard to get rid of. If the oily part of the skunk spray is not removed from the clothing, the stink will remain. If you want to try to clean it, washing with your regular detergent may not get the smell completely.
While skunks might use their spray as a defense mechanism, the odor left behind is more offensive than anything. The extremely foul smell can last for three weeks, and the longer it sits, the harder it is to remove.
Skunk spray contains sulfur-based organic compounds called thiols. These compounds let off an immediate blast of acrid scent, reminiscent of rotten eggs.
Do skunks always spray when threatened? No, skunks do not always spray when they feel threatened. They typically show warning signs first, like raising their tail, stomping their feet, and hissing or charging if their striped appearance isn't warning enough. They only spray if these initial warnings are ineffective.
Skunk spray is a thiol, an organic compound with sulfur as a principal component. Sulfur has that classic rotten egg smell, and it's what gives thiol its gag-inducing power. For detection purposes, thiols are added to otherwise smell-free natural gas, so that it will have a noticeable odor.
Skunks can spray up to 6 times in succession before running out of their smelly weapon. But skunks only want to use their precious weapon as a last resort. Once they have used all their liquid, it can take up to 10-14 days to refill the glands.
A true odor proof bag, also referred to as a flat pack pouch, is made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET or PETE). The material is a tough, clear polymer that has exceptional moisture and gas barrier properties.
Skunk smell can last anywhere from two weeks 14 to 21 days. The best ways to remove the smell from your clothes, furniture, hair or dog's fur is using a mix of baking soda and vinegar or peroxide.
Skunk Facts
You can smell a skunk even if it hasn't sprayed. A skunk can spray accurately anywhere from 6 to 15 feet away. The average skunk can spray no more than 5 times over a 10 day period.
The smell from skunk spray can linger for two to three weeks, so if you're the unfortunate recipient you need to act fast. Skunk spray is pungent, oily and hard to remove. The longer you wait, the more difficult it is to neutralize.
The expert told me that the odor proof bags in a controlled setting do work and that he has tested them. Unfortunately, the argument that the dog did not indicate because odor proof bags were used seldom wins.
"Skunk odor becomes more pungent when the animal becomes wet." The secretion itself is a yellow oil that will cling to most surfaces that contacts; like all oils, it does not mix with water.
Domesticated skunks are descented when they are between two and five weeks of age, and grow up “unarmed.” While a relatively simple procedure, there is some debate as to whether or not descenting skunks is humane. Some argue that a descented skunk has unfairly been stripped of its natural defenses.
Training a Dog to Smell through Aluminium Foil
A detection dog trained to pick up the smell of a specific substance does not need additional training to smell through foil. A trained sniffer dog zeroes in on even the faintest odor, no matter what the object is wrapped in.
