My dog has been sprayed twice in 2 weeks! My dog just got sprayed in the eye a couple nights ago and I didn't know what to do. Well, immediately I put my dog in the bathsprayed him and I made a mixture of lemon and vinagar and pored it over his body for the smell. Then I just washed him with tearless dog shampoo. You want to wash the dog as quick as possible so the oils wont stay. I washed his eye in the water and put the shampoo around his eye and just plainly washed it off. I heard that if the dog gets sprayed in the eye it can be blinded for about 2 days. With this easy method my dog was not blinded. After you give the bath lays some towels down on the floor and usually they will roll around and rub their eye. Then wipe their eye gently and dry them. You might want to cover their bed with something else just in case. The next day I washed him again and i tried a little bit of mouthwash and again gently washed his eye off too. You can use tomato sauce (but be careful it can stain the dogs coat), you can use mouthwash, hydrogen peroxide (BUT NOT ON THE EYE'S MOUTH or NOSE), or vinagar and lemon. I have found that these methods work but be careful with their eye's because they are sensitive. Good luck!!
Both of my dogs got sprayed in the eyes by a skunk, and we used tomato sauce, and baking soda. Of course one of our dogs just had sergery on his paw, so that is wrapped up, then this morning we found that he has slipped a disk in his back, and now his back two paws are paralized. Not to mention, we think he is blinded by the skunk. He keeps squinting and looking all drugged.

Tell your dog he is a bad dog and punish him for killing a fellow living creature
2. The Skunk's Body
Bury the skunk or place the body somewhere far from your home in the woods so it can biodegrade naturally and become part of the circle of life
3. Foul Odor
Shave your dog and wash him with extra strong soap and shampoo- douse him with a fun safe fragrance such as Paris Hilton's 'Heiress' and let him air out the smell.

Why do skunks aim for the eyes?
Actually, skunks pretty much point their butts towards any animal that gets too close, and lets fly. However, in the case of a dog that is barking or snapping at a skunk, this results in the dog's face being closest to the skunk, and increases the likelihood of getting sprayed in the eyes.

What if your dog was sprayed in the eye by a skunk and now her eye is blood shot?
You may want to wash your dogs eyes with warm water. i think your dogs eyes are iritated though which is common whenever anything foreign from the body comes in contact with the eyes. The spray of the skunk is caustic which maybe cause temporary blindness, if you're very concerned you can just contact your local vet. there are also varying mixes for bathing in order to remove the smell if you're concerned about that aswell.
