Default has anyone else hit a skunk in your R

Tonight I hit a skunk , no damage that I can see.. It looks like I just hit it with my front left tire, then my back tire left an azenis track from head to tail.
I went and washed it right away, 4 times.. But the smell inside my R is sick.. Will this stick to the suede?? I am steam cleaning the rugs in the morning.. What else should I do?? I HATE SKUNKS (my girlfriend cried that I killed a skunk)

Leave a couple boxes of baking soda in it overnight.

It won't get rid of it, but it will help.

Dood, sorry for you hitting something so stinky.

But, me and my girl are laughing so hard jut reading your post I just had to post here.

When our dogs would get skunked we would wash them with Tomato juice. Don't know or think this will make a difference but, it might help.

Or you could try Home Depot for some of that Super Strong Janitorial Smelly Drain Cleaner/Fragrance Stuff, I think it's like Super Cherry or something. But, it will probably end up smelling like Skunk and Cherries.

Sorry for you again man,

I hit Deer, they don't Smell, they just Royally F*ck up your car.

Good luck,

A.

at least you're not trying to avoid the Skunk...

I learned that it is better to hit those animals rather than avoiding.. because you can get killed. kill them instead.

good luck with the SKUNKY R.. do you have SKUNK Cams? LOL

I was coming over a hill when I saw the skunk in the middle of the road...I tried to avoid it but I heard the thump when I ran over it...

Park in a garage...keep the windows down...and try to hose doewn the underside of your R as much as you can.

spray some Febreze inside the car.

as for the outside, spray it down w/ some citrus cleaner.

yshi - who wished he knew about Fabreeze during the 4months it took for the egg smell to go away -fugn' kids

oh man i feel so sorry for you. there are places that can detail your undercarriage. take it there, also hand wash it, use baking soda that should absorb the smell hopefully. lol goodluck man.

Smelly, stinky mess! It might take a while, but you can get the smell out using everything (or some combination) of the items metioned above. I know it smells and it totally sucks, but it is better than hitting a racoon, possum, fox, dog, or something bigger.... like a deer. Someone hit a deer on a street near a large forest preserve yesterday. Poor deer. Poor car! The front end was totally demolished! good luck with the stink.

If Febreeze can keep my dorm room from smelling like ***, it should help with the skunk smell.
