Rubbing and fingering risk

Good day,
My problem is as if follows :
I have nasty habit of biting nails, and occasionally skin next to nails. Two weeks ago pealed off (bit off) part of skin next to index finger, and my finger bled just above the nail area as the result of that pulling off skin (so it was not just thin layer of skin). Minimum 8 hours later I fingered girl (maybe 2 or 3 times for couple of minutes each time) and I rubbed my penis against her vagina (but i did it from behind, so head of my penis might have come in contact with her vaginal fluids). Since this was all night (out) occasion i didn't wash my penis right away, but in couple of hours(5-8), so her vaginal fluids remained on my penis.
What is the probability that I become infected this way?

Do you know the difference between your finger and your penis? You DO NOT contract HIV from fingering.

Just one more question. If I'm not infected it means i can't transmit HIV. It's not possible that small amount of HIV enters body and be at a later time overpowered, but still has window in witch can be transmitted? Or concentration would be too low?
I usually try not to be stupid, but kid bit me 9 days after incident, had cut on lip (didn't look fresh or open, but still), and broke my skin.....

HIV needs penetration to transmit. Fingering isn't a risk.
