Whoops, 2000 Mercury Cougar Dash Lights

Ok,
So don't ask me why because I knew this was stupid even as I was doing it but there was something stuck in my cigarette lighter and being the thinker that I am, I decided it would be a good idea to use my car key to try to get it out...yeah, needless to say, there was a spark and now all my dash lights don't work :( Everything works, I just can't see my dash (at all) when I drive at night.
I have checked all the fuses (under the hood and under the dash) and none are blown...any ideas what I did to my car?

ya ya blew the dash lights...ha..ha....ha.
Now if the headlights and tails are ok, you need to change some bulbs.
