What can I do days after exposure?

My partner and I have not had sex. Three nights ago, we came very close, but still, I refrained. Most contact involved one of us having our underwear on. However, there was still skin to skin contact of the surrounding areas like inner thighs, and his penis touched my inner thighs. We also both performed unprotected oral sex on one another. The next morning, he told me he has HPV and and outbreak of genital warts. He said that he wanted to tell me before we had sex. But I think that with the contact we already had it's possible that I could have contracted it already from him.
1) What are the chances of getting HPV and genital warts without actually having sex, but still having skin to skin contact in that area.
2) Is there anything I can do in the days after that can prevent me getting HPV and genital warts?
3) I am a 24 year old woman. Should I get the vaccine right away?
4) I am currently living abroad in South Korea. Can I get the vaccine here?
5) I dumped him immediately and am very mad at him. Am I over reacting? That's probably more like a question for a mental health doctor, sorry. It's just that all of this stuff has been keeping me up at night.

Hey Thanks for commenting. I was so freaked out that I paid the $15 to ask the M.D. I feel better after what he wrote. He thinks it's unlikely that I could catch it from the contact that we had. He didnt *** in my mouth. and I didn't notice any bumps at all, but i wasnt really looking for them either. Maybe I will in the future. I think I will get the vaccine soon. It is worth it. But it's hard to find a good doctor that speaks perfect English over here in s korea. and my Korean is definitely not up to par as far as that is concerned.

i think your a very smart women for protecting yourself, and refraining from having sexual intercourse w/ this "boy" when you were performing oral sex did you feel any warts on his penis? and another important question i would wonder was if he ejaculated into your mouth. I think your vagina will be fine since his penis didn't touch it. What a jackass is all i have to say. i would definitley have dumped him. he should have told you that as soon as you met him, prior to even getting to 2nd base! i would definitley get the shot. i had all 3, they are kinda painful but i'm glad i did it. i'm in a relationship w/ the same man for over 2 years, and i still got it just to play it safe. another thing, you can only get the shot until i think your 27 so get it now before you regret it. i hope everything works out. you could always google genital warts and see how you actually get it. sorry
