I had an old Momma skunk that lived in my side yard in an old stump. She ended up having a litter there, and moved them under the dog house in the kennel. For a week, the poor beagle whined and cried, and I kept hollering at him!!! I didn't see her digging in the side yard any more, and assumed she had moved out. I finally wondered why the dog wouldn't go in his box, so I went out and dug around. I thought I could smell skunk, and lifted up the box, and there were the babies. I didn't have the heart to dispatch them. So I set a live trap, and caught her. I waited until she was sound asleep, and put an old blanket over the trap. I put the little ones in a 5 gallon bucket, and moved them back in the woods to an old groundhog hole. I just went easy, and moved really slow. None of them even offered to spray. But, she was used to seeing me all the time too, so that might have had something to do with it.
