Dog ate brownies

My dog is ~10 lbs and (along with our other dogs, both also ~10 lbs) ate a four pack of brownies that are quite large while we were away at work (4th or 5th ingredient is cocoa powder processed with alkali). It had to have happened very soon before we got home, as they were still eating when we arrived. Probably around 3:30pm this afternoon. Well, at about 5, maybe closer to 6, the first 10 pound dog got sick on our couch. No problem, we thought. Natural reaction to getting in to sweets of that nature. Well, not ten minutes later, she got sick again. Throughout the evening, she’s gotten sick about five times, and the vomit is clear with a brown tinge. She’s lethargic but has had no other symptoms. Our other two dogs are currently acting fine, even though we saw one of the two eat a large chunk of brownie. We called the emergency vet and they said to bring her in, but that’s quite expensive and we’d like to avoid a midnight visit if we can. What should we do from here? How can we keep her in relatively good condition, at least until morning? Do we need to go to the vet? Thanks, I really need some advice.
