Hey I just thought of a possible ,Idea for you to try.Put a harness on him and put a flap on it in front of where he sprays that might reduce the spray and help with his odor problem. just a thought..

This is my advice, this is what I do: I have two stinky bucks and I walk into their pens saying "Don't touch me, don't touch me, don't touch me. Then I go in the house, take a shower and change clothes, not allowing myself or my clothes to touch a single thing. My husband made the mistake of touching a buck and then dropping his clothes on the bedroom floor. I smelled it for days even after all was washed and showered (I can smelled anything). If you own a buck, get used to it. You can even pick up the odor on your clothes from wind transfer. But hey, it smells better than a chemical plant, it's organic.....Diane (My bucks don't touch me either! Trained them that way since youngsters).
