Roundup Extended control by mistake

Hi all. I am new to gardening and accidentally used Roundup Extended Control to spray the weeds around my shrubs. The beds are covered with pine straw so most of it settled on that. The house is new, and so are the shrubs...about 3 months old. Should I expect this to wash down into the soil and kill everything? I'm really upset about making this mistake. I spot sprayed the weeds. Also if a little got on a leaf or two of the shrub will the whole shrub die? I was also thinking of sodding over an area that I spot sprayed, is this not possible for 4 months? I guess I'm just wondering if the ground is contaminated even though it's covered in pine straw. Thanks.
