Remove skunk smell!

Ok so here's the deal. Last night on my way home I clobbered a poor skunk. Before he left this world he must have doused my car because my interior smells terrible still. I washed the outside and then cleaned te interior but I can't get the smell out.

Anyone know what product to use to get this smell out? It's making me sick everytime I drive lol.

Febreze and lots of air fresheners. The smell will probably be gone in a couple of days.

You guys were right. I bought some Febreze Auto and just kept my windows rolled down for a few days and the smell is pretty much gone now. There is still a slight hint of it left on hot hot days when it has been sitting in the sun, but it's nothing more air fresheners can't handle lol.

Have you gone to a washer that has the undercarriage wash? That would probably help just in case any of the lil guy is hanging on underneath your car.
