first you need to find out if it is leagl to have a pet skunk in your area. then if it is you will want to find a breeder. skunk have been domesticated for over a hundred years, they used to use skunk fur instead of mink for rich lady coats. but anyways, in michigan where i live, you can just get a list of breeders from the DNR along with the nessicary paperwork for the permits. when you get the baby skunk from the breeder at about 3 weeks old or so it will already have the stink glands removed, they take them out very early. there is still the possiblity of the skunk having rather bad smelling urine, but it wont be able to spray anymore

do a serach on google for care tips if your actully serious about doing this.

also from what ive found, a baby skunk will cost from 250 to 300 dollars

They don't really make good pets. They tend to bite claw like a mean cat. It gets worst during dreeding season.
