Spilled vodka on my new unibody MacBook Pro 15'' (late 2011)

A week ago I bought a new Macbook pro 15'' unibody late 2011 model and two days ago I spilled 20 ml of pure vodka on the eject key of the keyboard. My first instinct was of course to panic and I didn't turn it off till about 5 minutes later. And I know this is bad, but I turned it on almost immediately again. While I was logging on I realized that my o and k keys had stopped working. So I turned it off. The next thing I did was to disassemble it. I noticed that my battery was wet and certain other parts were too. So I got a cotton cloth and wiped it gently until it was dry. My next move was to take the hard drive out and even though I had dried my battery, I did not have a screwdriver with which to unscrew it and take it out. So I did what I could. I left it in there. I then proceeded to cover my hard drive in rice and I also left my laptop flipped and on top of rice. Now, it is 2 days later and after reassembling my pro, it won't turn on. But I can see it charging. Any suggestions as to what I can do? Or what might be wrong with it?
