 And that's something that the tomato juice doesn't do, which is why it doesn't work. And so you have to make this mixture of bleach and baking soda and dish soap in water. And together, those things will break down those odor compounds so that they don't smell anymore. It will neutralize them totally, whereas tomato juice just camouflages them a bit. So what you end up with is a dog that smells like skunk and tomatoes, which I think is probably worse than a dog that just smells like skunk.
