Default No fuel after rollover

I rolled my 2003 650 Prairie tonite. I was going up a steep hill out of a creek and had to stop in the middle of the hill because of a tree. Tried to back down but the front end came up and rolled over backward down into the creek landing upside down in the middle of the creek. The water wasn't real deep, maybe a foot or a little more. Didn't get hurt and there was no damage done to the four wheeler other than I bent the front rack a little. Pulled it out of the creek and tried to start it. Pulled the plugs and got it to roll over. There was a little water in the air box but none in the motor. Couldn't get it to start and had to be towed 20 miles home. It doen't seem like it is getting fuel. Is there a safety switch on these that kills the fuel when you roll them over? If so, where is it and how do I reset it. If not, what else might the problem be.

Thanks for all your help.

Yes I have heard that they is a cut off switch for the electric fuel pump on Prairies incase it is flipped.
I have no idea where it is but Im sure someone on here will.

There is a cut off switch for that located at the very rear on one of the frame tubes. It may be cruched or full of water?

on the right side in the back small rectangle box. Take it off shake it around start the bike... watch for the wires shorting out along the frame. check for spark.
