If it is still wet, DO NOT try to charge it.

Put it into a jar full of silca gel small packets for at least 24-48 hours, then test it (finger crossed about possible internal components damage).

If the issue persists, make an appointment (*) and have your device+charger+cable inspected at an Apple Store or AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) among this list:--> https://locate.apple.com/choose-country-region . After checking it out, they'll give you all the available options.
