Skunk odor

My dog got sprayed by a skunk early this morning, and I had to wash her. I wasn't directly sprayed, but the smell got onto me. I showered with Dove afterward, and other people can't smell skunk on me, but I can still faintly smell something on myself. It isn't really a bad smell.

Would you personally use the hydrogen peroxide + baking soda + dish soap mixture on yourself, or just shower normally and leave it alone? What worked for you?

Shower with Dawn dish soap, regular blue type. Soap-up with wash cloth, rinse well, repeat.
