We think so. My wife says the skunk was at his water dish when he came out the door. She thinks the skunk came in near the side gate, as that is exactly where it made a beeline to when the dog beat to quarters. I have now sealed all suspicious possible access points in the area.

@Renauda Glad it has turned out (relatively) okay!!

The comedy has evolved into a full blown farce. It appears that I have lost my sense of smell for skunk odour. My spouse, on the other hand, senses the odour everywhere and on everything inside the house and within a fifty foot radius of our property. At the same time however there is a consensus that the dog now has only a very faint odour of skunk, not enough that he should not have his usual house privileges.

I read somewhere (so it has to be true) that exposure to a smell overtime decreases your ability to smell it. It was something (who knows) like every 30 minutes you smell it 50% less or something. Clearly this is the most precise comment I've ever made. The point is the same...
BTW I don't mind the smell of a distant skunk. Maybe I'm weird. Also maybe I'm glad they've always been distant.

My guess is she will be smelling it for quite a while. Went through this with a dead raccoon in our attic. She smelled it for months where I could only detect a faint oror for a couple days. I was in North Carolina when it really stank so it's not a matter of going nose blind.
