Fahaka puffer jumped out of tank and is all dirty

My son over filled the tank and our puffer jumped out. Luckily my grama was in the room so I was able to get him right back into the water. He is breathing and moving his fins but just sitting at the bottom of the tank with his back to me, which is not normal, he usually faces the front of the tank and when he sees me swims to the top. He also has dirt and cat hair on him. He didn't puff up and I dont want to stress him out anymore than this expierence already has, but I'm worried I should clean the gunk off of him in dont want any bacteria or infections to set in. I dont see any open wounds on him and I added some stress coat to help keep his slime up. Any advice would be greatly appreciated he is my first puffer.
