My Macbook Wont Turn On... At All...

I spilled salad on my Macbook and immediately after, held it upside down and cleaned it thoroughly. I force shut it and then turned it back on a few minutes later. Everything worked except for my mouse-pad. I clicked around but it (the mouse-pad) still was acting eratically so I force shut it again, plugged it in and went to sleep. This morning I came to check up on it, but it wouldn't turn on. There was no sound, no beeping, no whirring noises. Nothing whatsoever. Frustrated, I tried again and again but nothing worked.
I would really appreciate if someone could help me with this, and ASAP...

Thank You,

Devorah

If the salad had dressing or oil, it very likely got onto your logic board and shorted something out. Anyway, please read our Sticky Notice regarding spills.

You can find it here.

Thank you for all the help, but I decided in the end to simply take it in... G-D willing everything will turn out well!
