I had skunks living under my patio deck.
Put a trap out for them and catch them individually. You will then need to kill it to dispose of it.
To kill it, you get a large bucket (I had a 25 gallon drum) and fill it with water. Large enough to put the entire trap into and then some. You will put the trap into the water by using a large bedsheet, walking toward the trap holding it up so the skunk can't see you. The skunk has a limited amount of spray so it won't spray you unless it can see you. Use the bedsheet to slowly walk up to the trap and put the bedsheet over the trap. This way, it won't spray and if it does you are proteced just in case. Have someone guide you from afar because you can't look around the sheet at the trap.
Once the bedsheet is over the trap completely, pick up the entire sheet and trap and put it in the barrel / bucket of water. The skunk will probably spray as soon as it realizes this is it's last moments. Don't worry the bed sheet and water will trap the spray.
Wait 20 minutes to make sure the entire thing is drowned and dispose of said skunk.
