You are 15...
You need to tell your parents what you did....and get your dog washed ...while they try to contact, and talk to the vet.
Roach spray is poison. You did the wrong thing,  
NOW....Do the Right thing, and tell your parents and get help for your dog.

You need to put her in the bathtub and wash her VERY VERY WELL to get that stuff off of her!  Why on EARTH would you put roach spray on a puppy?  I am not meaning to sound judgemental here, but I'm sorry, I can't help it.  If you read the can on ANY spray used to kill bugs around the house or yard it says specifically NOT to spray it around children or pets.

If she has fleas then go to the vet and get her a preparation that is made to kill and repel fleas.  But NEVER spray anything that is not intended SPECIFICALLY FOR PETS on a pet.  

You may also want to notify your vet about what happened because there is a strong likelihood that she will have other problems because of this.  The spray will be absorbed into the skin even if you bathe her immediately since this happened a few hours ago and you need to be aware that she COULD develop neurological problems depending on how much she absorbed.  Your vet needs to know about this so that he can treat her appropriately should the need arise.  PLEASE post back and let us know how she is.  But above all, get her into the bathtub NOW and wash whatever is left on her OFF before she gets any more of it into her system.
