What Could Cause Smelly Urine In An Infant While Being On Formula?

My 11 month old son started having skunky smelling urine yesterday. It s really strong. He is mainly ony formula now. Still has some breastmilk in evenings. Eating food. Has been fussy last 3 days ans fussy an nights. Any ideas. Purchased some pre-made formula in the glass bottles a few days ago and he has been drinking more of that than the enfamil powder. Has been pretty gassy too. Drooling alot again. Has had his 2 bottom teeth for 2 months now.
