AS for remedies on removing the skunks from your property, I would recommend playing some music on speakers near the floor where they're living, maybe some TV sounds, nothing super loud, just bassy, to make their living area uncomfortable enough that the mom will want to move her kits out. Maybe putting some flour out in their escape routes so you can check for pawprints and know they're gone at night, and then blocking off entry via hammering any entryways shut (note: you said it's a mom and kits so make sure ALL SKUNKS ARE GONE before blocking the entrance, or you'll end up with the kits starving to death). Other people said ammonia, that's toxic and is just going to make you and the skunks sick.
@Tybron yah... so I did that and made a trail of nuts and berries that lead to the barn and now they are safe there

Weird that you're complaining since I always saw you hanging out in skunkseeking groups and stuff like that, you always seemed to enjoy my stories for instance. I can tell you if your car's sprayed then throw everything you can at the spots the musk hit, because every time you drive it the scent will stick to clothing, ESPECIALLY in the heat of the summer. When my car was sprayed I was having people notice the scent on my work uniform back in 2012, it was humiliating and got me in trouble at the movie theater I worked at.
@Tybron don't worry it's all been fixed now... I made a trail of nuts that lead to my barn so now I moved them there.

Call animal control?
@NightGalleries: I don't live close to any animal control centers (whatever you call it) it would take too long for them to get here...
omg that's terrible what have you done to try to fix the problem. I read your last post and said could you not get pest control? they can move them away from your home without harming them.
@cutiepi23: they don't live by me like, at all. When they get here, it will be too late :/
ask at your local emergency services they might be able to find some help for you in your area. There must be something you can do.
@cutiepi23: well I am trying moth balls... it said something about keeping them away
@Haileygamer099: hope you resolve this and quickly ....very stressful
@cutiepi23: and reeks... my car has been sprayed twice or more... I almost got sprayed... and all I smell is skunk. I will take care of this... wish me luck :/

You can call the DNR (division of natural resources) and they will come remove them and relocate them
@AngelaAnthony: hmmm... never heard of them. But like animal control, I looked them up... and they don't live even close to me so it will be too late before they get here...

Ride around with d windows down
@Goralski: I can't even drive around with my car because I definetely have gotten some of the scent on me because maybe a drop got on because i entered one store, and everyone was gagging. So I left before I got unwanted attention

That stinks.
@stormy223: I see what you did there... I would chuckle, but the situation is too serious
