Talk to experienced doctor online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
You have washed the wound ,it's very good...
Now you must continue your arv treatment and take antibiotics also along with arv for atleast five days.
You need not have to repeat the first dose which you have taken...
And watch the dog for any rabid symptoms if it is possible.
