Hi,
Have you tried to open a laptop? If not, try to go to service center it might causes more damage.But if you can, use a tissue and a ligther fluid to clean the keyboard membrane. Dry it well so that it cant causes shorted.... Thank you for using fixya....please dont rate me if you are not satisfied with my suggestions.

well this is a common thing but most likely the motherboard was shorted out and causing glitching. I would take it to a tech to see if there is anything recoverable in there

You might be able to find a cheap replacement palm rest (which includes the touch pad) on E-Bay or similar site. Just search your model number.
As far as replacing it yourself, I recommend having someone that works on computers regularly doing it, unless you are completely comfortable working inside the laptop. If you are (and you take all necessary precautions), here is the Service Manual from Dell which includes disassembly instructions for the palm rest.
