Can a cat find its way home after being sprayed in face by a skunk?

My cat is 10 years old. She has always been an indoor-outdoor cat. The night before last she came running in the house acting terrified and crazy and rubbing her nose and face. She ran around then out the door again.I couldn't figure out what had happened,but then I smelled really strong skunk spray. We have skunks in our area, and one of my neighbor's cats was sprayed a couple of weeks ago, and had no problems from the spray. But, my cat has not returned and I cannot find her anywhere. Can she find her way home without a sense of smell if she was sprayed in the face? Some internet articles say the skunk spray can really harm or kill a cat. I am so worried. Any thoughts or ideas would be so much help.
