The best and fastest way to get rid of the skunk odor is using an ozone generator. At the moment I am tackling with this issue but I don't have the equipment to make an ozone generator. Therefore I am benefitting from sun rays which have almost the same effect of an ozone generator. However it takes more time to work out. Sun rays are perfect for getting rid of the bad odor from any textile or product. It can even remove the cat pee smell on a shoe or textile, but as I said it takes some time; perhaps a few days. Alpocalypse..
It depends on what the skunk damaged and whether or not vermin or pests are a covered peril under your policy. If it's an odor problem then likely it's not covered, Skunk Odor dissipates on it's own. Just contact your insurance agent and ask them if your covered, that's the easiest way to find out.
The best way to deal with a skunk is to contact a professional wildlife removal service or animal control agency. Skunks can carry diseases and their scent glands can emit a strong odor. It's best to leave the removal to trained professionals.

Home Insurance for Skunk Vandal?No. A skunk is not a vandal. it is a pest and this is a maintenance issue. If your home foundation is properly skirted and vented a skunk could not get under it. Also a skunk odor is a temporary odor that will dissipate usually in a few days or a week or two at most. It may be a nuisance but it is not a covered peril under the terms of a homeowners insurance policy.If you want to get rid of the odor a little faster just throw some tomato juice around wherever you think the skunk sprayed. It should accelerate the dissipation of the odor. It would not make since for an insurance company to spend thousands of dollars in claims adjustment time just to send someone to your home to spray around with a 5 dollar bottle of tomato juice.If you insist they do this then they will probably cancel or non-renew your home insurance policy due to a nuisance claim.AnswerWell, a skunk sprayed in my house! And I do believe it should be covered under the vandalism clause. As of now they are saying no but have yet to respond to me regarding it being covered under the vandalism clauseAnswerThe only way would be if someone purposely put a skunk in your home knowing it would spray.
The best way to eliminate a persistent odor in a room is to identify and remove the source of the smell, clean the area thoroughly, and use odor-absorbing products like baking soda or activated charcoal. Additionally, good ventilation and air circulation can help to freshen up the space.

It helps if you bath in tomato juice or pasteActually tomato juice and/or tomato paste will not remove skunk odor from anything. People believe this works because when someone has been exposed to skunk odor for several minutes their nose begins to get used to the smell (olfactory fatigue) then when a strong new odor (like tomato juice) is smelled, their sense of smell becomes overwhelmed and can only smell the tomato juice.Think about it, when you walk into Italian restaurants you usually smell a strong garlic odor, but after you're in the restaurant for ten minutes you don't smell the odor anymore. But if you were only in the restaurant for 3 minutes and someone opened a can of tomato juice beneath your nose you wouldn't smell the garlic anymore! It's amazing how the human olfactory system works.
To get skunk smell out of clothes you need to keep in mind that skunk spray leaves an oily residue which is what makes it so hard to get rid of. If the clothing came into direct contact with spray (straight from the skunk, rubbed off a sprayed dog, etc) then the oil needs to be broken down to remove the smell. Launder them with a degreasing detergent (or detergent with a degreaser added). Some solutions list hydrogen peroxide (which can bleach things) as a possibility, but for clothing you might want to try soaking in the following: 1 Liter White Vinegar 1/4c Baking Soda 1 Tsp dish soap The dish soap will help break down the skunk film, while the vinegar and baking soda will help neutralize the odor. After soaking them, run them through the washing machine using cold or cool water. If instead your clothing merely picked up the odors out of the air (no direct contact with the skunk's spray), or if they are materials that are not readily laundered, then you can rent an ozone generator which will help neutralize the odor. Ozone reacts with many different scent molecules and breaks them down - this is the same effect it has on skunk odor. If you have a number of items that have leftover skunk smell on them, this can be an effective way to room odor from them at one time.
