One summer my DD brought home a bucket of little skunks (3) that she found in the woods. I didn't allow them in the house but they happily settled down in the yard and were fed table scraps every evening. They became tame enough to eat out of my hand, and it was funny to watch them vie for the food scraps. They would threaten to spray each other, even shoving their rear ends into each other's faces, but they never carried the threat out. Skunks don't like their stink either, and they only spray if they are feeling threatened. However, when the neighbor's dog would stop by to see what was going on they let fly at him. Any time I saw Pepper coming around the corner of the house I would yell, "Shut the windows!" because I knew what was coming.
By the end of the summer they were full grown and one by one they wandered off to live their adult lives elsewhere in the woods.
I would not be in favor of descenting a skunk unless you also had it spayed or neutered and kept it as a house pet. Skunks have no other defense than their odor, and they have no instinct to avoid trouble except for spraying. Without the stink they would be easy prey for any dog, coyote or fox that came by. And if they are not neutered they naturally want to roam and find a mate as soon as they are adult. It would be very difficult to keep an adult intact skunk as a pet.
My advice is to enjoy the little fellow for as long as he is willing to hang around.
