Water in a Gfi outlet

I had a fan plugged into the outside outlet last night, and it came up a rainstorm. I'm afraid maybe some water got into the outside outlet. Today as I'm watching tv, I heard a click and the power to the tv went out. I looked in the fuse box and the breaker labeled Kit was tripped. I unplugged my toaster and reset the breaker and it didn't trip again. Still no tv. I replaced the 15 fuse for the tv, and looked at the fuse for the kitchen but it's not burnt out. But then it tripped again. I have reset the gfi in the bathroom, still no tv. The outside plug also does not work. Is there another gfi outlet I should be looking for? Is this now a bigger issue, or should I pull out all the 15 fuses to see if there is one burned out. It is not tripped at the moment but nothing works on that slide....tv....toaster....now I'm wondering if my fridge is still working....the light is on inside.

This is a 2004 Montana fifth wheel. Thanks

The fuses have nothing to do with with your ac appliances and the tv. They are for 12v dc only like lights and the antenna booster. Did you check to see if the outside outlet or the one closest to the kitchen sink have a GFIC reset. It is possible you have two. The circuit breakers are for all ac appliances. Leave your fridge set on auto so if it has no ac power it will switch to gas.
