OK, when I said I did not know for sure about that third ingredient in this concoction and that I would track down the info so I could post it correctly, I was right. I did not know for sure. So I edited the post above, and I am putting the info here.

It's the one with the hydrogen peroxide and the baking soda and the dishwashing soap. The person who told me about this uses a lot more hydrogen peroxide than baking soda in the solution. She adds liquid dishwashing soap to get the suds and help spread it through the coat. -- (This is starting to sound like chemistry class to me. Must have something to do with acids and bases and all that stuff.)... I have never done this myself. My geriatric dog Annie has never tangled with a skunk so I have not had to use this. I sure hope she does not take up skunking now at the age of 15 and a half. But I am going to keep the ingredients on hand, just in case.

(Seems like the dog's face would be hard to get to without getting it in the eyes. And I bet the face takes a lot of the hit from the skunk. I guess dabbing the face with one paper towel after another might work. Using each one just one time and then pitching it so as not to put the smell back on.)

Barefoot, this sounds like what you must have already used. I got it from a major dog lover who lives where her dogs have adventures in skunking from time to time. She says that it works and she also uses it for regular baths if the dogs are just plain stinky.
