I honestly have no idea if you are asking a serious question or is this a jest.

But just in case, I will give you a suggestion.  Polecats first can not climb too much, but can sure dig and fast.  So, look around your chicken coop and find his way in, and destroy it.  He is probably coming seeking food or water.  Impossible to eliminate that from a chicken coop, then you will have to catch itn and get rid of him.  But they are too fricken fast, so must use your brains instead of force. 

Make yourself a strong wire cage, with a swinging door to it.  Make door so you can hold it open with a string but will close either by some spring mechanism tripped by polecat after entering, or by you with a string attached.  Place some water and food inside, and set trap near his point of entrance to chicken coop, and be patient, evenntually you will get him, before  the village healer comes to fix your wife on her dying bed enlightened

I would wait in chicken coupe all night with shotgun, leave only one opening, hope you can stand the smell, then wait for pole cat to stick his head in the coupe and blast him. He can't out run lead.

WTF?? You let your chickens roost in expensive sports cars? I hope they lay really good eggs!

TedDBayer:

opps spelling ,,OK >coop, this is what happens when you don't read or write for years, hey the colouring is gong well and I like pictures. But if the pole cat sticks his head in your coupe you can still blast him. My coupe is a 1938 Chevy, probably had chickens in it and it ain't finished inside yet.

To make up for the lost egg money, you need to catch the polecat alive (better options when I comes to selling the little bastard).  So how do you catch him, leave out cornbread covered in bacon grease.  When the little critter comes for the snack, catch him by getting your finger in his butt.... it keeps your fingers safe from the sharp teeth and plugs the scent gland.

Just make those fake eggs like they were doing a few months ago. 
No, no, no, not to sell, silly.
Use them to lure the pole cat into a fake hen house and lock him in. 
You'll have to kill him and skin him and butcher him.
Or her.
THEN you sell the meat as Kobe beef or some other inanely expensive beef and then you can pay the witch doctor.
Or maybe the witch doctor will take the pole cat in trade and make some kind of natural herbal medicine with it.
My best to your wife, and the hens.
