Default diesel in my gs300

so turkey hill put diesel in their premium gas and of course i filled up not knowing and drove my gs300 around till it was dead...turkey hill payed for damages and took it to lexus dealership to get fixed... all they did was drain out the diesel and change my spark plugs, i was told they should have did a lot more ? anyways i got it back and it ran for a week and then i got a flashing check engine light and some very bad idling when stopped and my rpms would stay high. i had light checked at advance auto and they said all my sparkplugs are misfiring. is this lexus fault? can this be damage from diesel still? oh and my oil smells like gas now.... 98gs300 170miles
