No, I've done worse and have yet to infect a beer, especially at FG. The alcohol will help protect against nasties.
It's good that you are aware of your sanitation malfunction though. You will get better about those brainfarts as your brewing progresses.

Let your beer sit in primary for ~ 2-3 weeks. Then bottle or keg. If, by that time, it looks, smells, and tastes OK--then you should be fine. If it doesn't, then tell us what's going on. Until then, empty some commercial bottles for your next batch and don't worry.
