spilt nail polish remover on my macbook

I spilt nail polish remover on the top right corner of my macbook and it seems to have seeped into the bottom corners of my screen and has almost bleached/stained them. It has gone into the keyboard and the middle keys’ lights won’t work but the surrounding keys’ lights do. The speakers do not play music but when i put in my earphones they still work perfectly. Any advice to go about fixing it or what’s needed?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

If you have AppleCare+ it will cover a large portion of accidental damage.

AppleCare+ (similar for iPhone and iPad, each incident of accidental damage) for Mac will carry its own price tag. Screen damage or “external enclosure damage” will run $99 per incident, while other damage, including water damage, will run $299. Users receive coverage of two incidents under AppleCare+, and after the two incidents have been used up, out-of-warranty replacement rates will apply


(*note: there may be some delay due to the temporary Apple Store closures)
