If she seems fine, and is eating and drinking normally without vomiting you are probably ok to just continue to monitor her. She already vomited so any induction of vomiting is unnecessary at this point. If she starts vomiting more, has diarrhea, or doesn't want to eat, or seems ill in any way, then she needs to see a vet.
