SHEFFIELD LAKE, Ohio, June 19 (UPI) -- An Ohio woman said she is having a nervous breakdown after her family was forced out of its home by four skunks living under the floors.

Karen McCullough, her husband and teenage son have spent a month living in a crowded rental home with their two dogs, two cats and a bird while workers repair the floors in their house, The Plain Dealer newspaper in Cleveland reported Thursday.

"I've cried a few times. Inside, I'm having a nervous breakdown," she told The Plain Dealer.

Contractors haven't said when the McCulloughs will be able to go home.

The family said the skunks sprayed after their dogs began barking at noises under the floors in November.

The skunks have been removed but the McCulloughs are stuck waiting in their rental home until contractors finish repairs, the newspaper said.
