Since this little guy meant business, no pics. I think I know how bomb disposal guys feel now.

Nervous, very nervous.
The Master Gardener program had a segment on pest critters and the skunk expert said to throw a drop cloth over the trap because skunks don't want to be all that close to skunk spray either, so they won't spray if they are in a confined space. The caveat to that is if it's a teenager skunk, because like all teenagers, "Yee Haw! Check out mah new toy!" SSSSSSPPPPPPRRRAAAAYYY! "Hot damn, Cletus, do it again!" So your mileage may vary in that case.

But, you'd have the check out line to yourself if you made a hat out of it:
