Will a Texas Indigo snake eat a skunk?

I have a huge (7 foot) indigo snake that lives under our house and I live out in the country. I have a skunk problem and was wondering if the snake will eat them. Specifically...will the snake still eat them if the skunk sprays it first? Thanks in advance for any answers/advice.

    1.) Brown -- (Rainbow-brand flip-flops) 2.) Maybe my eyes? I don't really know! 3.) Aww, shucks, I don't know... but I am a listener and I care about people. 4.) Chicken just because it's not as expensive as steak... but I love both! 5.) Hazel 6.) Lol, no, I actually don't swear at all... I say a lot of non-cuss words like shoot, heck, dang it, suck egg mule, law, crap, durn, etc. I'm a hillbilly girl. 7.) Always late!!! It's not something I'm proud of, but it's true nonetheless. 8.) Haha!! Well, I generally punch myself in the face by accident, does that count? Anyway, I don't punch, I kick 9.) I don't know! I will have to ask my Banjarmasin friends. But I do know that they found a species of snake near there not too long ago that can change colours!

    i think that a skunk will be slightly too large for that type of snake to consume. and being sprayed would not be as extreme event for the snake as it would us humans.

    Not likely. Snakes don't fool with things that can hurt them or make them feel bad. Most snakes with two grains of sense know better than to fool with a skunk.
