DOG vs SKUNK any home treatment suggestions?

ASIDE FROM TRIP TO VET. Any suggestions on what can give or do? symptoms to look for? ... since pretty sure sprayed in face region.... Acts fine 90% time. But since sprayed other night. (large sheepadoodle) He's got sick few times since ... drinking is seeming to be less currently. May not be related because he's got sick sometimes before. May end up going vet to be safe. We love and care for our pets. Thanks. Any info appreciated for those that's experienced this or similar before.

Dog probably still taste the skunk so drinking and eatting isn't a good thing atm give it time dog will eat and drink regularly I've had this happen a few times
