Are skunks dangerous

Answer 1

No. They just reek.

My dog was sprayed full in the face with his mouth open. He foamed at the mouth a little, and his eyes were bloodshot, but other than the smell, he was none the worse for wear in about an hour.

See other wiki answers for getting rid of the smell.
