Okay, I have a house/wiring/electrical question.

We don't have ceiling lights in our bedrooms because the heating/cooling vents are in the center of each room ceiling (we hates them, we does). But each room has a light switch connected to one of the outlets.

Jr. overloaded the one in his room and it blew out the outlet (at least I'm assuming it's the outlet).

Am I likely to be able to fix it by just replacing the outlet, or will I need to look elsewhere? The switch?

Anything beyond replacing those and I'm looking at hiring someone, which could get spendy.
