Could be one to two weeks. Some plants can't take the stress. At least it's not dead. All you can do is wait unless you have a backup plan. Oh the only thing I have seen to keep them away is a big sack of dried corn. Put a pile of it about six feet away from plant and keep feeding them. They love apples and pears too.

DOUGAL25, Thanks for the reminder. That's what my doctor tells me. I'm not a hunter but when it comes to this one has to go. When you go outside mother nature can throw you a curve ball.
