I have no experience with pepper-spray but I do have quite a lot experience with CS-gas.

When sprayed the most common reaction is to turn around and run. You have to be extremely lucky to get control over one attacker. Two are almost impossible.
As long as they manage to run away all you can do is to sit and wait and wonder if they return….

I have to say that if I were to use a spray my very next reaction would be to get the hell out of therer as fast as possible (the packing regime would not be fully adhered to). The only issue with trying this in the Western Sahara is there is generally only one road with a limited option of North or South! Not exactly "getting lost in the crowd" territory.
