I have heard that water intensifies the smell and that you should only use water after you use something else to get rid of the oils. I always keep a bottle of Skunk-Off on hand just in case we get sprayed. I have had two close calls, so I know it will happen someday. Both times, the dog was nose to nose with the skunk with me on the other end of a leash only six feet away <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> Luckily neither skunk decided to spray.
