Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Please don't blame yourself but you need to be very careful regarding infants. i would definitely suggest you to get her checked by local doctor along with the bleach bottle which she might have ingested. and urgently if she develop any symptoms like vomiting, unable to take something orally, fever, breathing difficulty.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
