Accidentally paid the wrong employee, how to adjust payroll liabilities?

I accidentally paid the wrong employee via direct deposit and submitted the Federal, SS, and Medicare liabilities via EFTPS. The employee has refunded the net amount of the check back to the company. How do I fix the liabilities that were inadvertently withheld and remitted?
