HELP! Skunks :/

So since I moved into this house with DH we have had a skunk problem! They burrow under the porch and live there during the night and every once in a while spray because the dog scares them. Well last night at 3am they sprayed again and now my whole house (blankets, clothes, furniture, carpet) stinks so bad!
Anyone have any ideas on how to get this house smelling better? I have had all the windows open all day (brr its 37 out right now) and have all 4 scentsy warmers on and have gone through 9 glade oil candles. I hate skunks!!

Re: HELP! Skunks :/
Here's a cleaner "recipe" that should help. I know tomato juice works but not sure how stainproof some of your stuff is!

You should think about trapping the skunks and relocating them elsewhere (at least 10 miles away from your house). Then make it so that no other animals can live under your house in their stead. GL!
To keep skunks away use moth balls. Spread them around the area and they will leave.They will leave Not that I blame them
As for the scent, tomato juice should be used on pets.
