Well it very depends on the kind of packaging.. Plastic package inhibits absorption...but paper packing may help absorption.

Hello,
If the packing of bag was proper and airtight then there is a minimum chance that spray go inside the bag and causes any harmful effect by product.
Next Steps
Keep that bag in direct sunlight for at least 4 to 5 hours.
