The skunk is not a rodent. They belong to the family Mephitidae and the order Carnivora which does not include rodentia. They are sometimes placed in the family Mustelidae (weasels) but have been discovered to be less related than was thought.
A slice of melon is a perfect addition to your skunk's diet. This can be watermelon, cantaloupe, crenshaw, casaba, Persian and honeydew. Skunks will also eat the melon rind. Other fruits such as bananas, cherries, pears, mulberries and cranberries can also be added to your pet skunk's diet.
