The trouble is that (rarely) pink skunk clowns can be missing the head bar. Their ranges overlap, so that makes ID more difficult. I'd say this is an orange skunk though.....
 
Most likely you got two different species.
Pink Skunk (A. Perideraion) with the vertical white bar and an Orange Skunk (A. sandaracinos) without it.
