Fox urine works as a squirrel deterrent.
As does Calvin Klein's Obsession for Men (known to attract cats, which squirrels do not like).

Yeah, but then you'd have foxes and cats.

Foxes and cats don't tend to fill your car with black walnuts. They also don't break into your garage and fill boxes with black walnuts after chewing into them (chipmunks).

We've got a nice little acre across from us that's wooded/undeveloped. So we get deer, foxes, opossums, racoons, cats, squirrels, and chipmunks.

No, no, they are much better than that, they, bring dead mice, discarded pastrami, and chicken bones(stuff found by dad on small lege by front wheel stored by a local tabby).

Dog hair and orage zest sprey helped him. Should be less stinky option.
