Skunk spray on leather - help!

["Jeanne Slominski" <EnduranceMorgan1@home.com>]

My friend and I went riding today and passed a skunk, sleeping (?), in the brush right next to the single track trail. Obviously, the skunk felt threatened as it sprayed us. My girlfriend was in front. She and her horse took the brunt of the spray, but we also got hit.

 

I've washed everything, but not sure how to handle my saddle. It looks like the spray is on the fender and stirrup.

 

I know that tomatoe juice and ground coffee are suppose to work. I'm a little apprehensive about washing the leather with tomatoe juice, or rubbing the ground coffee into it.

 

Does any one have any suggestions?

 

Thanks - Jeanne
