Too big to digest

I recently went away for a week and had my parents feed my boa while i was gone. My boa, Madison, is still very young and I feed her large fuzzies/small hoppers. While I was gone though, my parents somehow got the fuzzies mixed up with my adult mice (even though the containers in the freezer were labeled) and fed Madison an adult mouse. I was worried at first, but seeing how she didn't regurgitate it, I thought it would be okay.

It's been a week now since I last fed her and the bulge from the mouse still hasn't moved. She hasn't digested the mouse yet and I'm getting really, really worried.

I soaked her in warm water and slightly raised the temperature in her enclosure but she still isn't looking better.

I'm worried beyond belief. Will she be okay? Should I just wait for her to pass the mouse or should I bring her to a vet? In the meantime, I've found a more reliable reptile-sitter, but I still need help. I want my baby to be okay!

Thanks for your time, and hopefully your help.
