It's best to induce vomiting as soon as possible. If it was ingested within the last 60 minutes, then you have a good chance of keeping it all from getting absorbed. Below is a link to an article about inducing vomiting. You will need hydrogen peroxide to do this: https://www.petcoach.co/article/4-things-to-consider-before-inducing-vomiting-in-dogs/ It is recommended that your dog go to the emergency vet for treatment and monitoring, or else there could be life-threatening complications. I understand that money is an issue, but they are used to working within budgets, so hopefully they can help find a good solution for you and your dog. I hope that helps and everything turns out alright.
