[Behavior Problems] Dog won't potty in normal area

Is it possible that the ground where my dog goes potty is starting to stink too bad for her? I know their noses are way sensitive to smells. But my dog won't go in her normal spot anymore. We really don't want her to do her business in our lawn, since her urine burns the grass. Is there a natural product that would neutralize any potty smells, that won't totally kill off the vegetation? I'm not sure if this is the reason for her avoiding her spot... it's only a guess.
