how to wash skunk off skin

So While camping one of my friends got sprayed by a skunk.

luckily we had an extra car so she could ride back alone lol.

What is the best way to wash it off ? any recommendations ?

Baking soda plus hydrogen peroxide couple drops of dawn

I've had good results from Dawn dishsoap,4 cups of white vinegar in a 5 gallon pail of warm water. A soft car wash brush and lots of sloshing the solution worked well when my dog got into one. It would likely work for a people,too.

Put two bottles of 70% hydrogen peroxide into a spray bottle. Step in shower nude and mist your entire body. Let it sit for a couple minutes. Dont spray your hair unless you want to become a blonde! Then wash with soap

Not challenging but 70 % Hydrogen peroxide is not going to burn the skin and create damage?

When i "whiten" Euro mount,i wear gloves.Even the 3% peroxide gives me little prickles.
When I used once 40% hair dresser strength peroxide,and it got on my skin,it disclored the skin,and it was a burning sensation....... ?

70% would definitely oxidize the skunk odor but I'm with GBK on this as i think at that strength if left on skin for a few minutes it would oxidize the skin as well. I know 35% will definitely leave a mark on skin almost immediately (know that from experience using it, as we use it for oxidation at that strength at water treatment plants). Also thinking if any 70% inadvertently got in your eyes it would be a a very bad scene.

That car is going to stink too, I would have put her in the box of the truck.
