How to fix a camera lens with water in it?

I have recently, way too recently, bought a digital camera (Nikon S7000) and got water into the lens.

I don't mean dropped the camera into water, but when I went outside in the snow to take photos yesterday I slipped and a bit of snow went on the lens.

I have wiped this off with a lens wipe and the outer lens looks clean, with no smudges, but when I try to take photos they are blurry.

Could the water/snow have gotten into another layer of lens or something?
And how can I fix it? Does it need to be sent a pro or do I need a replacement?

As you can tell I'm not at all a camera expert, I know nothing about cameras, so any help is appreciated.

"Carefully clean any water from the lens and other glass parts, ideally using a proper microfibre lens cloth, paying close attention to the edge of the lens where joins to the lens barrel. If water gets inside the lens barrel and between the elements, it can cause marks on the lens coating and even lead to the growth of fungal blooms on the surface of the lens. If this happens you will need to have your camera professionally serviced. If you don't have a microfibre lens cloth, any clean soft lint-free cloth can be used, such as the type usually supplied with a new pair of spectacles.

Nor am I so I searched on the internet; every result I found for "camera lens got wet, how to dry" and every result I found suggested get it professionally serviced as the one offered above.
Here is the exception that you may wish to try, I know when my roommate got her phone wet she put it in a bag of rice to dry and it worked. Check this out:

Hope that helps

Pull out the drain plug then stay away from the hole to avoid getting sucked in.

The lens may just be foggy inside. Bring the lens back in and check to see if the front is foggy or not. Just let it stand on a shelf away from the kids and the dog. The air inside the lens should normalize in time.

When bringing the camera and lens out in snow, put first in a (thermal) lunch bag (while indoors) then bring the bag out. Wait for 20 minutes before you unzip the bag's cover. Wait for 10 minutes before you open the cover and get the camera out.
