i don't think a skunk will spray in it's 'house' (or whatever it's called... den maybe?)... but don't quote me on that
This is ..... terrible. I guess I am soft.

We had a skunk dig a den in our window well once late in the summer. I just filled the hole with crushed gravel when the skunk left. For some reason that worked.
