NO!! STOP!!
Do not turn it on. If you want any hope at all, leave it off.
You might check with a local, non-Apple repair shop. Where I work we have a liquid-spill service and can clean most stuff so long as the board is not totally shot. We avoid "shooting" the board by turning it off. Power is the killer.
The water will evaporate out and leave behind the solids which will corrode the leads.
Contact a shop and see if they do something similar.
Also, do you have AppleCare+ on it? What model/year?
If no one local wants to attempt it, you could send it to me and we could have a look at it. But you've got to leave it turned off, or the problem will only get worse. It may be salvageable and it may not.
